Self-diagnosis Function
The heater control panel has a self-diagnosis function.
Running the Self-diagnosis Funqtion
Set the mode control dial to the Vent position, and turn the ignition switch ON fll). Within six seconds after turnang the igni_tion switch on. press the recirculation control switch the required number of times depending on the recirculation indicatorlight status:

Performance Test
The performance test will help determine if the air con-
ditioner system is operating within specifications.
Use only service equipment that is U.L.-listed and is cer-
tified to meet the reouirements of SAE J2210 to remove
HFC-134a (R-134a) from the air conditioner system.
CAUTION: Exposure to air conditionor rofrigerant and
lubricant vapor or mist can irrilalo €yes, nose and
throat. Avoid breathing tho air conditioner rstrigerrnt
and lubricant vapor or mist,
lf accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate work
area before resuming service.
R-134a service equipment or vehicle air conditioner sys-
tems should not be pressure tested or leak tested with
compressed air.
@ some mixtur$ of air and R-134a have been
shown lo b9 combustible rt glgvatad pr€ssur63 and can
resull in tire 01 oxplosion causing inlury ot property
damage. Never uao compre33ed air to pressure t99t R-
134a ssrvico 6quipmsnt or vohicla air conditioner sys-
tems.
Additional health and safety information may be obtained
from the refrigerant and lubricant manufacturers.
'1. Connect a R-134a refrigerant recover/recycling/
charging station to the vehicle, as shown, following
the equipment manufacturer's instructions.
2. lnsert a thermometer in the center vent outlet.
Determine the relative humidity and air tempera-
ture,
Test conditions:
. Avoid direct sunlight.
. Open hood.
. Open front doors.
. Set the temDerature control lever or dial to MAX,
COOL, the mode control switch or dial on VENT
and the recirculation control switch on RECIRCU-
LATE.
. Turn the A,/C switch on. and the heater fan switch
on MAX.
. Run the engine at 1,500 rpm.
. No driver or passengers in vehicle
After running the air conditioning for 10 minutes
under the above test conditions, read the delivery
temperature from the thermometer in the dash vent
and the high and low system pressure from the A,/C
gauges.

Five-step Troubleshooting
2.
1.Verify The Complaint
Turn on all the components in the problem circuit to
verify the customer complaint. Note the symptoms.
Do not begin disassembly or testing until you have
narrowed down the problem area.
Analyze The Schematic
Look up the schematic for the problem circuit.
Determine how the circuit is supposed to work by
tracing the current paths from the power feed
through the circuit components to ground. lf several
circuits fail at the same time, the fuse or ground is a
likely cause.
Based on the symptoms and your understanding of
the circult operation, identify one or more possible
causes of the problem.
lsolate The Problem By Testing The Circuit
Make circuit tests to check the diagnosis you made
in step 2. Keep in mind that a logical, simple proce-
dure is the key to efficient troubleshooting. Test for
the most likely cause of failure first. Try to make
tests at points that are easily accessible.
Fix The Problem
Once the specific problem is identified, make the
repair. Be sure to use proper tools and safe proce-
dures.
Make Sure The Circuit Works
Turn on all components in the repaired circuit in all
modes to make sure you've fixed the entire prob-
lem. lf the problem was a blown fuse, be sure to
test all of the circuits on the fuse, Make sure no new
problems turn up and the original problem does not
recur.
