BODY STRIPES/DECALSÐYJ
YJ body stripes and decals are durable tape
stripes/decals with a adhesive backing.
REPAIR
Small nicks, scratches can be touched-up with
paint. A correct color match can be obtained by
blending small amounts of appropriate paint colors.
To eliminate blisters and air bubbles in a body
stripe/decal, pierce them with a needle or pin. Force
the trapped air out of the hole.
A heat gun can also be used to remove small wrin-
kles and irregularities in a stripe/decal.
REQUIREMENTS
Body stripe/decal replacement because of collision
damage requires that the metal repair and paint re-
finish be completed first.

The work area temperature should be between
18ÉC (65ÉF) and 32ÉC (90ÉF).A tape stripe/decal
should not be replaced if the work area temper-
ature is less than 18ÉC (65ÉF).
The following equipment and material are neces-
sary for body stripe/decal removal and installation:
²Commercial tape stripe/decal removal solution.
²Commercial adhesive removal solution.
²Liquid dish detergent (for the wetting solution).
²Mixture of wetting solution.
²Commercial wax and silicone removal solution.
²Isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol.
²Small squeegee (plastic or hard rubber).
²Water bucket and sponge.
²Clean wiping rags or paper towels.
²Heat gun (or infra-red heat bulb).
²Wax pencil.
²Sharp knife, single edge razor blade or X-acto
knife.
²Pair of scissors.
²Needle or pin.
A wetting solution assures a better bond between
the painted surface of the body and the tape stripe/
decal. Prepare a supply of wetting solution by mixing
two or three teaspoons of dish detergent with 1 gal-
lon of water.Do not use soap.
Too much detergent will reduce the effective-
ness of the mixture.
REMOVAL
The key to successful tape stripe/decal re-
moval is to apply heat to area and slowly peel
stripe/decal from panel.
(1) Clean the repaired surface, adjacent panels and
door openings as necessary.
(2) Start at one end of the tape stripe/decal and
apply heat with a heat gun. Slowly peel the stripe/
decal from the panel by pulling it back.Do not pull
the tape stripe/decal outward from the panel.
WARNING: USE THE TAPE STRIPE/DECAL RE-
MOVAL SOLUTION IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA
ONLY.
(3) A commercial tape stripe/decal removal solution
can be used for stripe/decal removal at areas where a
heat gun is ineffective:
²mask-off the body panel area surrounding the tape
stripe/decal (Fig. 1).
²Move the removal solution spray back and forth
across the complete length of the stripe/decal with a
smooth, steady motion.
²Ensure that the complete stripe/decal is covered
with the solution.
²Allow the stripe/decal removal solution to remain
on the stripe/decal for 20 minutes.²After 20 minutes, peel stripe/decal away from the
flange and, starting at a corner, peel the stripe/decal
from the body (Fig. 2).
²If there is difficulty with peeling stripe/decal away
from body use a squeegee for stripe/decal removal
(Fig. 3).
²With the stripe/decal removed, scrape all the
stripe/decal removal solution from the panel surface
before proceeding.
WARNING: USE THE ADHESIVE REMOVAL SOLU-
TION IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA ONLY.
(4) After the stripe/decal is removed, remove any
adhesive remaining on body with a removal solution.
(5) After 3 to 5 minutes, use a squeegee to remove
adhesive (Fig. 4).
(6) Remove the masking tape and mask from the
panel.
(7) Wipe the panel with a cloth with a general pur-
pose cleaning solution.

(8) Return the tape stripe/decal back to its original
position. If a wetting solution is used, position the
adhesive side of the tape stripe/decal on the panel.
Apply wetting solution to the outside of the tape
stripe/decal. Use firm strokes with a squeegee to ad-
here the tape stripe/decal to the body.
(9) Hold tape stripe/decal firmly against the panel
surface while separating the carrier from the tape
stripe/decal (Fig. 9).
(10) Where applicable, extend the tape stripe/decal
12 mm (1/2 in) beyond the door edge. Next, wrap it
around on the flange and adhere it to the door flange
(Fig. 10).Use care to avoid trapping air under
the tape stripe/decal.Where necessary, trim excess
tape stripe/decal.
(11) If applicable, remove the cover from the face of
the tape stripe/decal.
(12) Inspect tape stripe/decal with reflected light to
check for defects that could have developed during
the installation process. Remove all air and/or mois-
ture bubbles.COMPLETE REPLACEMENT
The following procedure will simplify installation of
a complete or large section(s) of tape stripe/decal on a
vehicle (Fig. 11 and 12).
(1) Place the tape stripe/decal on a clean, flat sur-
face with the carrier side facing upward.
(2) Bend a corner of the carrier inward, and sepa-
rate the corner of the carrier from the tape stripe/de-
cal.
CAUTION: Hold tape stripe/decal at extreme outer
edges of the corners while separating the carrier.
(3) Hold tape stripe/decal firmly against the flat
surface and separate the carrier from the tape stripe/
decal.
If hot and humid, a slight jerking motion will
aid separating the carrier from the tape stripe/
decal.
(4) Use a clean sponge and apply ample wetting
solution to the tape stripe/decal adhesive and to the

painted panel surface. The solution will permit ease
of tape stripe/decal movement when positioning it on
the panel.
(5) Position adhesive-coated side of tape stripe/de-
cal on the panel with the bottom aligned with char-
acter line. Where applicable:
²align the end of the replacement tape stripe/decal
with the end of the existing tape stripe/decal, and
correctly align the index darts and index notches.
(6) If a complete replacement tape stripe/decal is
not being installed:
²Position the replacement tape stripe/decal section
at the center of the repair area.
²Align it with the existing tape stripe/decal and al-
low at least 12 mm (1/2 in) of the tape stripe/decal
section to overlap the existing tape stripe/decal
edges.(7) Apply wetting solution to the outer side of the
tape stripe/decal to allow the squeegee to freely slide
while adhering the stripe/decal to the panel.
CAUTION: Avoid unnecessary pulling and stretch-
ing at the ends of the tape stripe/decal because this
could cause it to tear.
(8) Position and slide a squeegee from the center to
the ends of the tape stripe/decal. This will ensure
complete bonding of the tape stripe/decal to the
painted panel surface.
(9) If a wrinkle is trapped in the tape stripe/decal
during the squeegee operation, stop. Lift wrinkled
area and re-align stripe/decal with panel character
line.Do not lift the tape stripe/decal if only a
few air bubbles exist.
(10) Where applicable, allow 12 mm (1/2 in) extra
tape stripe/decal to extend beyond the edges to be
folded over.
(11) Fold the excess tape stripe/decal back onto in-
side flange area.Use care to avoid trapping air
under the tape stripe/decal.Where necessary, trim
excess tape stripe/decal.
(12) Inspect tape installation with reflected light to
detect any defects that could have developed during
the installation.
(13) Remove all air and moisture bubbles from the
tape stripe/decal with a needle or pin.
(14) Install any removed components and clean the
vehicle as necessary.

HEATER AND A/C OPERATION
HEATERÐXJ
A blend-air heating system is used in XJ vehicles.
The temperature of heated air is controlled by regu-
lating the quantity of air flow through the heater
core. This is accomplished by blending outside air
with heated air from the heater core to obtain the de-
sired discharge temperature. A temperature control
lever on the heater control determines air flow
through the heater core. The lever uses a cable to op-erate the blend-air door. This door controls air flow
through the core. Vacuum motors are used to actuate
and position the remaining door in the system.
On left hand drive (LHD) XJ vehicles a water valve
controls coolant flow to the heater core. The valve is
vacuum operated. When vacuum is applied, the valve
opens and coolant is directed through the heater core
and back to the engine. When the water valve is
closed (no vacuum applied) coolant flow bypasses the
heater core back to the engine.
JHEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING 24 - 1
Page 1899 of 2198

motor is controlled by a vacuum switch in the heater
control panel. The vent air doors are opened and
closed by a cable and linkage operated by the air con-
trol lever. Fresh air intake occurs only when the le-
ver is in the VENT position.
AIR CONDITIONING
The compressor increases the pressure and temper-
ature of the refrigerant. The heated refrigerant vapor
is pumped into the condenser where it is cooled by
air passing over the condenser fins. As the refriger-
ant cools in the condenser, it condenses into a liquid.
Still under high pressure, the liquid refrigerant
passes into the receiver. The receiver acts as a reser-
voir to furnish refrigerant to the expansion valve at
all times. From the receiver, the high pressure liquid
refrigerant passes to the expansion valve. The expan-
sion valve meters refrigerant into the evaporator.
The low pressure is maintained by the suction side of
the compressor. As it enters the evaporator, the re-
frigerant begins to absorb heat from the air passing
over the evaporator core. Having given up its heat to
boil the refrigerant, the air is cooled and passes into
the passenger compartment. From the evaporator the
vaporized refrigerant is drawn back to the compres-
sor to repeat the cycle.
A/C COMPONENTS
COMPRESSOR:The SD7H15 Compressor is used
on all models. The purpose of the compressor is to
compress the low-pressure refrigerant vapor into a
high pressure, high temperature vapor. The compres-
sor is serviced as a assembly only.
CLUTCH PULLEY AND COIL:They are
mounted on the compressor and providing a way to
drive the compressor. The compressor clutch and coil
are the only serviced parts on the SD7H15 compres-
sor. When the compressor is not in operation, the
pulley free wheels on the clutch hub bearing. When
the coil is energized the clutch plate is magnetically
engaged with the pulley and turns the compressor
shaft.
CONDENSER:The condenser is located in front of
the engine radiator. Its function is to cool the hot
high pressure refrigerant gas. This causes it to con-
dense into high pressure liquid refrigerant.
EXPANSION VALVE:The expansion valve is lo-
cated in the engine compartment on XJ vehicles. On
YJ vehicles it is located behind the A/C housing. Its
function is to meter refrigerant into the evaporator in
accordance with cooling requirements.
Fig. 3 Fresh Air Intake System Components
24 - 4 HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONINGJ
Page 1902 of 2198

EVAPORATOR COIL:The coil is located in the
A/C housing. Its function is to remove heat and de-
humidify the air before it enters the vehicle.
FIN SENSING CYCLING CLUTCH SWITCH:
The switch is attached to the evaporator coil with the
temperature sensing probe inserted into the coil fins.
This switch controls evaporator temperature and pre-
vents condensate water on the evaporator coil from
freezing. It does this by sending signals to the Pow-
ertrain Control Module (PCM) to cycling the com-
pressor clutch on and off. This switch is used onXJ
only.
FILTER-DRIER:The drier is used to remove any
traces of moisture from the refrigerant system. A
sight glass is located on top of the filter drier. It is
used as a diagnostic tool to observe refrigerant flow.
HIGH PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE:The valve is
located on the filter drier. The valve is used to pre-
vent excessive high pressure build of 3445 to 4135
kPa (500 to 600 psi) and above. This prevents dam-
age to the compressor and other system components.
LOW-PRESSURE HIGH-PRESSURE CUT-OFF
SWITCH:The switch is located on the filter drier
and is wired in series with compressor clutch. When
the pressure drops down to 193 kPa (28 psi) the
switch interrupts the power to the compressor clutch.
When the pressure increases above 3100 to 3375 kPa
(450 to 490 psi) the switch interrupts the power to
the compressor clutch.
THERMOSTAT:The thermostat is located in the
evaporator housing. The thermostat temperature
sensing probe is inserted into the evaporator coil. Its
function is to cycles the compressor clutch on and off.
This switch controls temperature and prevents con-
densate water on the evaporator coil from freezing.
The thermostat is used on theYJonly.
REFRIGERANT LINES:The lines are used to
carry the refrigerant between the various system
components.
SERVICE PORTS:The high pressure service port
is located on the discharge line near the compressor.
The low pressure service port is located on the suc-
tion line near the compressor. These ports are used
to attach A/C gauges. After servicing the refrigerant
system, always install service port caps.
REFRIGERANT
XJ and YJ vehicles use a new type of refrigerant
called R-134a. It is a non-toxic, non-flammable, clear
color-less liquified gas.
R-134a refrigerant is not compatible with R-12 re-
frigerant. A small amount of R-12 in a R-134a system
will cause compressor failure, oil sludge or poor air
conditioning performance.R-134a refrigerant requires a special type of com-
pressor oil (SP20 PAG). When adding oil, make sure
that it is designed to be used in a R-134a system and
the SD7H15 compressor.
Service ports have been designed to ensure that
the system is not accidentally filled with R-12 refrig-
erant.
REFRIGERANT EQUIPMENT
WARNING: EYE PROTECTION MUST BE USED
WHEN SERVICING AN AIR CONDITIONING REFRIG-
ERANT SYSTEM. TURN OFF (ROTATE CLOCKWISE)
ALL VALVES ON THE EQUIPMENT BEING USED
BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH THIS OPERATION.
PERSONNEL INJURY CAN RESULT.
Chrysler Corporation recommends a (R-134a) recy-
cling device that meets SAE standard J2210 be used
when servicing the refrigerant system. Contact an
automotive service equipment supplier for refrigerant
recycling equipment that is available in your area.
Refer to the operating instructions provided with the
recycling equipment for proper operation.
MANIFOLD GAUGE SET
CAUTION: DO NOT use an R-12 manifold gauge set
on an R-134a system. The refrigerants are not com-
patible and system damage will result.
A manifold gauge set (Fig. 1) may be needed in
conjunction with the charging and or recovery/recy-
cling device. The service hoses on the gauge set being
used should have manual (turn wheel) or automatic
back flow valves at the service port connector ends.
This will prevent refrigerant from being release into
the atmosphere.
LOW PRESSURE GAUGE HOSE
The low pressure hose (BLUE with BLACK STRIP)
should be attached to the charging/service port. This
port is located at the right front of the engine com-
partment in the condenser-to-evaporator line.
HIGH PRESSURE GAUGE HOSE
The high pressure hose (RED with BLACK STRIP)
should be attached to the discharge/service port. This
port is located on the compressor plumbing or mani-
fold.
RECOVERY/RECYCLING/EVACUATION/
CHARGING HOSE
The center manifold hose (YELLOW or WHITE
with BLACK STRIP) is used to recover, evacuate and
charge the refrigerant system. When the low or high
pressure valves on the manifold gauge set are
opened, the refrigerant in the system will escape
through this hose.

REFRIGERANT OIL
It is important to have the correct amount of oil in
the A/C system. This will ensure proper lubrication of
the compressor. Too little oil will result in damage to
the compressor. Too much oil will reduce the cooling
capacity of the system.
The oil used in the SD7H15 compressor is a poly-
alkylene glycol synthetic oil SP-20 PAG, wax-free re-
frigerant oil. Only refrigerant oil of the same type
should be used to service the system. Do not use any
other oil. The oil container should be kept tightly
capped until it is ready for use and then capped after
use to prevent contamination. Refrigerant oil will
quickly absorb any moisture it comes in contact with.
OIL LEVEL CHECK
It will not be necessary to check oil level in the
compressor or to add oil unless there has been an oil
loss. This may be due to a rupture or leak from a
line, shaft seal, evaporator or condenser. Oil loss at a
leak point will be evident by the presence of a wet,
shiny surface around the leak.
When an A/C system is assembled at the factory,
all components (except the compressor) are refriger-
ant oil free. After the system has been charged and
operated, the oil in the compressor is dispersed
through the system. The receiver-drier, evaporator,
condenser and compressor will retain a significant
amount of oil.
Refrigerant oil must be added when a receiver-
drier, evaporator, condenser or compressor are re-
placed. When the compressor is replaced, the oil
must be drained from the replaced compressor and
measured. Drain all the oil from the new compressor.
Add back into the new compressor the amount of oil
that was drained out of the old compressor.
Add an additional 30 ml (1 fluid oz.) of com-
pressor oil to the system when a receiver-drier,
condenser or evaporator is replaced.
AIR CONDITIONING PERFORMANCE TESTS
Humidity has an important bearing on the temper-
ature of the air delivered to the vehicle's interior. It
is important to understand the effect humidity has
on the performance of the system. When humidity is
high, the evaporator has to perform a double duty. It
must lower the air temperature and the temperature
of the moisture carried in the air. Condensing the
moisture in the air transfers a great deal of heat en-
ergy into the evaporator fins and tubing. This re-
duces the amount of heat the evaporator can absorb
from the air. High humidity greatly reduces the evap-
orator's ability to lower the temperature of the air.Evaporator capacity used to reduce the amount of
moisture in the air is not wasted. Wringing some of
the moisture out of the air entering the vehicle adds
to the comfort of the passengers. However, an owner
may expect too much from their air conditioning sys-
tem on humid days. A performance test is the best
way to determine whether or not the system is per-
forming up to standard. This test also provides valu-
able clues to the possible cause of trouble.
Air temperature in test room must be 21ÉC (70ÉF)
minimum for this test.
(1) Connect a Tachometer and manifold gauge set.
(2) Set A/C controls to Max A/C, temperature lever
on full cool and blower on high.
(3) Start engine and adjust idle to 1,000 RPM with
A/C clutch engaged.
(4) Engine should be warmed up with doors, win-
dows and hood closed.
(5) Insert a thermometer in the left center A/C out-
let. Operate the A/C and engine for 5 minutes. The
A/C clutch may cycle depending on ambient temper-
atures.
(6) After 5 minutes note the discharge air temper-
ature. If the clutch cycles, take the reading before
the clutch disengages.
(7) On LHD XJ vehicles open the hood and discon-
nect vacuum line going to the heater water control
valve. Observe the valve arm for movement as the
line is disconnected. Plug the vacuum line to prevent
leakage. If it does not move repair vacuum circuit.
(8) Operate the A/C for 2 more minutes and take
the discharge air temperature reading again. On XJ
vehicles if the temperature increased by more than
2ÉC (5ÉF) check the blend air door cable for correct
operation.
(9) Compare the discharge air temperature to the
A/C Performance (Temperature and Pressure) Chart.
If the discharge air temperature is high, refer to Re-
frigerant Leak Testing and Refrigerant System Diag-
nosis Chart.
(10) Compare the compressor discharge and suc-
tion pressures to the A/C Performance (Temperature
and Pressure) Chart. If the compressor discharge or
suction pressure is not normal, check the operation of
the refrigerant system. Refer to Refrigerant System
Diagnosis Chart.
If pressures are abnormal, refer to the Pressure
and Performance Diagnosis Charts.
The following chart have been developed for quick
reference.
