Circuit Troubleshooting
9. Using a Backprobe Set, measure the voltage
between the No. 6 terminal of ECN4 connector B
{24P) and body ground with the ECM connectors
connecteo.
ECM CONNECTOR B {24P}
ls there battery voltage?
YES UDdate the ECM if it does not have the latest
so{tware, or substitute a known-good ECM, then
recheck (see page 11-6). lf the symptom/indication
goes away with a known-good ECM, replace the
original ECM.I
NO Repair open in the wire between the radiator
fan relay, the condenser fan relay and the ECM. t

Compressor Clutch Circuit
Troubleshooting
1. Check the No. 1 (20A) fuse in the under-hood
fuse/relay box, and the No. 14 {10A)fuse in the
under-dash fuse/relay box.
Are the tuses OK?
YES Go to step 2.
NO Replace the fuse(s), and recheck.I
2. Check the engine coolant temperature, the throttleposition sensor, and the idle speed (use the Honda
PGM Tester PGM-Fl data list if possible).
ls the coolant temperaturc above nomal, the
throttle position sensor rcading too high, or the
idle speed too low?
YES Troubleshoot and repair the cause of the
high engine coolant temperature, high throttle
position sensor reading, or low idle speed.l
NO-Go to step 3.
3. Remove the compressor clutch relay from the
under-hood fuse/relay box, and test it (see page 22-
51 ).
ls the relay OK?
YES Go to step 4.
NO Replace the compressor clutch relay.I
4. Measure the voltage between the No. 2 terminal of
the compressor clutch relay 4P socket and body
ground.

Compressor Replacement
1. lf the compressor is marginally operable, run the
engine at idle speed, and let the air conditioning
work for a few minutes, then shut the engine off.
2. Make sure you have the anti-theft code for the radio,
then write down the frequencies for the radio's
preset buttons.
3. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
4. Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/recycling/
charging station (see page 21-53).
5. Remove the alternator (see page 4-29).
6. Remove the Ay'C condenser fan assembly (see page
10-10).
7. Disconnectthe compressor clutch connector (A),
remove the bolts, then disconnect the suction line(B) and the discharge line (C)from the compressor.
Plug or cap the lines immediately after
disconnecting them to avoid moisture and dust
contamination.

8. Remove the mounting bolts and the compressor.
8 x 1.25 mm22 N.m 12.2 kgf.m.
9. Installthe compressor in the reverse order of
removal, and note these items:
. Before installing the new compressor, check for
metal or other contamination in the line. Replace
any contaminated parts.. lf you're installing a newcompressor, you must
calculate the amount of refrigerant oil to be
removed from it (see page 21-6).. Replace the O-rings with new ones at each fitting,
and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil before
installing them. Be sure to use the correct O-rings
for HFC-134a {R-134a) to avoid leakage,. Use refrigerant oil (KElHlN SP-'10) for HFC-134a
KEIHIN spiral type compressor only.. To avoid contaminatlon, do not return the oilto
the container once dispensed, and never mix it
with other refrigerant oils.. lmmediately after using the oil, reinstallthe cap
on the container, and seal it to avoid moisture
absorption.. Do not spill the refrigerant oil on the vehicle; it
may damage the paint. lf the refrlgerant oil
contacts the paint, wash it off immediately.. Charge the system (see page 21-55).. Do the engine control module (ECM) idle learn
procedure (see page 11-'139).. Enter the antitheft code for the radio, then enter
the customer's radio station presets.

Heating and Air Conditioning
A/C System Tests (cont'd)
1.
Performance Test
Air conditioning refrigerant or lubricant vapor
can irritate your eyes, nose, or throar.
Be carefulwhen connecting service equipment.
Do not breathe refrigerant or vapor.
The performance test will help determine if the air
conditioner system is operating within specifications.
Use only service equipment that is U.L.-listed and is
cenified to meet the requirements of SAE J2210 toremove HFC-134a (R-134alfrom the air conditioning
system.
lf accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate the
work area before resuming service
R-134a service equipment or vehicle air conditioning
systems should not be pressure tested or leak testedwith compressed air.
Additional health and safety information may be
obtained from the refrigerant and lubricant
manufacturers.
Connect a R-134a refrigerant recover/recycling/
charging station to the high-pressure service port
and the low-pressure service port, following the
equipment manufacturer's instructions.
Determine the relative humidity and air
Iemperaru re.
' Compressed air mixed with R-134a forms a
combustible vapor.. The vapor can burn or explode causing serious
Injury.. Never use compressed air to pressure test
R-134a service equipment or vehicle air
conditioning systems.
21-58
4.
Open the glove box. Remove both glove box stops,
then let the glove box hang down (see page 20-63).
Insert a thermometer (A) in the center vent, andplace another thermometer {B) near the blower unit.
Test conditions:
. Avoid direct sunlight.. Open the hood.. Open the front doors.. Sel the temperature control dial on Max Cool, the
mode control dial on Vent, and the recirculation
control switch on Recirculate.. Turn the A,/C switch on and the fan switch on Max.. Run the engine at 750 rpm.. No driver or passengers in vehicle.
After running the air conditioning for I0 minutes
under the above test conditjons, read the delivery
temperature from the thermometer in the center
vent, the intake temperature near the blower unit,
and the high and low system pressure from the Ay'Cga uges.
