DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE FOR INSUFFICIENT COOLING
SYMPTOM: Insufficient cooling
1.CHECK POWER SUPPLY FOR ECV (ELECTRONIC CONTROL VALVE)
1. Disconnect compressor (ECV) connector.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Check voltage between compressor (ECV) harness connector F6 terminal 2 and ground.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Check power supply circuit and 10A fuse [No. 12, located in the fuse block (J/B)]. Refer to PG-77
.
 If fuse is OK, check harness for open circuit. Repair or replace if necessary.
 If fuse is NG, check harness for short circuit and replace fuse.
2.CHECK ECV CONTROL SIGNAL
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Reconnect compressor (ECV) connector.
3. Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to ATC-43, "
Self-Diagnosis Function".
4. Set in self-diagnosis STEP-4 (Code No. 45). Refer to ATC-43, "
Self-Diagnosis Function".
5. Confirm ECV control signal between unified meter and A/C amp. harness connector M57 terminal 45 and ground using an oscillo-
scope.
Gauge indication Refrigerant cycle Probable cause Corrective action
Low-pressure side becomes nega-
tive. Liquid tank or front/rear side of
expansion valve’s pipe is frost-
ed or wet with dew.High-pressure side is closed
and refrigerant does not flow.
↓
Expansion valve or liquid tank
is frosted.Leave the system at rest until
no frost is present. Start it
again to check whether or not
the malfunction is caused by
water or foreign particles.
 If water is the cause, initially
cooling is okay. Then the wa-
ter freezes causing a block-
age. Drain water from
refrigerant or replace refrig-
erant.
 If due to foreign particles, re-
move expansion valve and
remove the particles with dry
and compressed air (not
shop air).
 If either of the above meth- ods cannot correct the mal-
function, replace expansion
valve.
 Replace liquid tank.
 Check lubricant for contami-
nation.
