HIGH PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE CHECK
The high pressure relief valve is a safety feature which releasesI
part of the refrigerant inside the system into the atmospherewhen the high pressure level exceeds 3,550
kPa (505 psi)
during air conditioner operation.Once the pressure inside the system has been reduced to
2,400
kPa (341 psi) or lower, the high pressure relief valveL&Jcloses, thus allowing continued operation.
(1) If a leak is detected at section A, replace the high pressure
relief valve. The valve can be used unless there is a leak(from that section.
(2) If a leak is detected at section B, retighten the valve. If the
leak still persists after retightening the valve, replace the
packing.
THERMOSTAT CHECK
(1) Dip the thermostat in engine oil.
(2) Check for continuity across terminals @ and @ when theengine oil is heated.
Standard value:Continuity at approx.
110°C (230°F) or less
at A pointNo continuity at approx. 155°C (311°F) or more

REVOLUTION PICK UP SENSOR CHECKMeasure the resistance between terminals
@ and @ of the
connector.
Normal resistance: 405 + 35 R when ambient temperatureis
20°C (68°F)
If the measurement deviates greatly from the above resis-
tance, replace the revolution pick up sensor assembly.
CONTROL VALVE CHECKThe control valve detects a low pressure level during the
operation of the air conditioner, and adjusts the amount of
refrigerant to be bypassed.
(1) Operate the air conditioner under a high temperature loadcondition (when vehicle interior temperature is high).
(2) Connect a low pressure gauge to the air compressor.
(3) Operate the air conditioner with the engine running at idle.
(4) Gradually increase the engine speed while observing the
low pressure gauge.
If the valve is normal, the low pressure drops slowly as the
engine speed increases until a pressure of 180
kPa (25 psi)
is reached, at which point the pressure temporarily ceasesto drop. Then, the pressure again starts dropping as the
engine speed further increases.If the valve is abnormal, the low pressure drops in direct
proportion to the increase in engine speed without a
temporary leveling off at the 180 kPa (25 psi) pressure level.
If the low pressure drops like this, replace the control valve.

Align the pin of the clutch coil with the pin hole in the fronthousing, and then fit it into the hole.
7. INSTALLATION OF SNAP RING
Install the snap ring so that the tapered surface is at the
outer side.

(2) Check whether or not the air gap of the clutch is within
the standard value.Standard value: 0.4
- 0.6 mm (.Ol - .02 in.)
NOTE
If there is a deviation of the air gap from the standardvalue, make the necessary adjustment by adjusting the
d 1number of shims.
