FLUORESCENT LEAK DETECTOR
FLUORESCENT LEAK DETECTOR
Checking of Refrigerant LeaksINFOID:0000000003775303
PRELIMINARY CHECK
Perform a visual inspection of all refrigeration parts, fittings, hoses and components for signs of A/C oil leak-
age, damage, and corrosion. Any A/C oil leakage may indicate an area of refrigerant leakage. Allow extra
inspection time in these areas when using either an el ectronic refrigerant leak detector (J-41995) or fluores-
cent dye leak detector (J-42220).
If any dye is observed using a fluor escent dye leak detector (J-42220), c onfirm the leak using a electronic
refrigerant leak detector (J-41995). It is possible that the dye is from a prior leak that was repaired and not
properly cleaned.
When searching for leaks, do not stop when one leak is found but continue to check for additional leaks at all
system components and connections.
When searching for refrigerant leaks using an electroni c refrigerant leak detector (J-41995), move the probe
along the suspected leak area at 25 - 50 mm (1 - 2 in) per second and no further than 6 mm (1/4 in) from the
component.
CAUTION:
Moving the electronic refrigerant l eak detector probe slower and clo ser to the suspected leak area will
improve the chances of finding a leak.
Checking System for L eaks Using the Fluorescent Dye Leak DetectorINFOID:0000000003775304
1. Check the A/C system for leaks using the fluorescent dye leak detector and safety goggles (J-42220) in a
low sunlight area (area without windows preferable). Il luminate all components, fittings and lines. The dye
will appear as a bright green/yellow area at the point of leakage. Fluorescent dye observed at the evapo-
rator drain opening indicates an evaporator core asse mbly leak (tubes, core or expansion valve).
2. If the suspected area is difficult to see, use an adjustable mirror or wipe the area with a clean shop rag or
cloth, then inspect the shop rag or cloth with the fl uorescent dye leak detector (J-42220) for dye residue.
3. After the leak is repaired, remove any residual dye using refrigerant dye cleaner (J-43872) to prevent
future misdiagnosis.
4. Perform a system performance check and then verify t he leak repair using a electronic refrigerant leak
detector (J-41995).
NOTE:
 Other gases in the work area or substances on the A/C components, for example, anti-freeze, wind-
shield washer fluid, solvents and oils, may falsely tri gger the leak detector. Make sure the surfaces to be
checked are clean.
 Clean with a dry cloth or blow off with shop air.
 Do not allow the sensor tip of the electronic refri gerant leak detector (J-41995) to contact with any sub-
stance. This can also cause false readings and may damage the detector.
Dye InjectionINFOID:0000000003775305
NOTE:
This procedure is only necessary when recharging t he system or when the compressor has seized and must
be replaced.
1. Check the A/C system static (at rest) pressure . Pressure must be at least 345 kPa (3.52 kg/cm
2 , 50 psi).
2. Pour one bottle 7.4 cc (1/4 ounce) of the HFC-134a (R -134a) fluorescent leak detection dye (J-41447) into
the HFC-134a (R-134a) dye injector (J-41459).
CAUTION:
If repairing the A/C system or replacing a co mponent, pour the HFC-134a (R-134a) fluorescent leak
detection dye (J-41447) directly into the open system connection and proceed with the service
procedures.
3. Connect the refrigerant dye injector (J- 41459) to the low-pressure service valve.
4. Start the engine and switch the A/C system ON.
5. When the A/C system is operating (compressor runni ng), inject one bottle 7.4 cc (1/4 ounce) of HFC-134a
(R-134a) fluorescent leak detection dye (J-41447) th rough the low-pressure service valve using HFC-
134a (R-134a) dye injector (J-41459). Refer to the manufacturer's operating instructions.

OUTLINE
• Interior room lamps* are controlled by the interior room lamp timer control function of the BCM.
*Front room/map lamps, personal lamp 2nd row, personal lamp 3rd row (when lamp switch is in DOOR posi-
tion) and puddle lamps.
• Cargo lamp is controlled by the cargo lamp control function of the BCM.
• Step lamps* are controlled by the step lamp control function of the BCM. *Front step lamps, rear step lamps and foot lamps.
The timer control functions of the BCM activate based on inputs from the remote keyless entry receiver, the
key cylinder lock/unlock switch, the door switc hes or the key switch and ignition knob switch.
ROOM LAMP TIMER OPERATION
When the interior room lamp switch is in the DOOR position and when all conditions below are met, the BCM
begins timer control (maximum 30 seconds) for interior room lamp ON/OFF.
• When the front door LH is unlocked [with Intelligent Key, main power window and door lock/unlock switch, or
front door lock assembly (key cylinder switch)].
• When a door opens → closes and the Intelligent Key is not inserted in the ignition switch.
Timer control is cancelled under the following conditions.
• When the front door LH is locked [with Intelligent Key, main power window and door lock/unlock switch, or
front door lock assembly (key cylinder switch)].
• A door is opened (door switch turns ON).
• Ignition switch is turned ON.
Interior lamp operational settings can be c hanged with the function setting of CONSULT-III.

INTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
If an interior lamp is left ON and does not turn OFF even when the doors are closed, the BCM turns off power
to the interior lamps automatically to save the batte ry 30 minutes after the ignition switch is turned OFF.
The BCM controls power and ground to all interior lamps.
After the battery saver system turns the la mps OFF, the lamps will illuminate again when
• a signal is received from an Intelligent Key or main power window and door lock/unlock switch, or when the
front door LH lock assembly (key cylinder switch) is locked or unlocked
• a door is opened or closed
• the Intelligent Key is removed from or inserted into the ignition switch.
The Interior lamp battery saver control time peri od can be changed with the function setting of CONSULT-III.
