24-24 HEATERS AND AIR CONDITIONING - Service Adjustment Procedures
COMPRESSOR NOISENUFIABWhen investigating an air conditioning related noise, you must
first know the conditions when the noise occurs. These
conditions are: weather, vehicle speed, in gear or neutral,
engine temperature or any other special conditions.
Noises that develop during air conditioning operation can oftenbe misleading. For example: what sounds like a failed front
bearing or connecting rod, may be caused by loose bolts, nuts,mounting brackets, or a loose clutch assembly. Verify acces-
sory drive belt tension (power steering, or alternator).
Improper accessory drive belt tension can cause a misleading
noise when the compressor is engaged and little or no noise
when the compressor is disengaged.
Drive belts are speed sensitive. That is, at different engine
speeds, and depending upon belt tension, belts can develop
unusual noises that are often mistaken for mechanical prob-
lems within the compressor.
Adjustment Procedures
(1) Select a quiet area for testing. Duplicate conditions as
much as possible. Switch compressor on and off several
times to clearly identify compressor noise.
To duplicate high ambient conditions (high head pressure),restrict air flow through condenser. Install manifold gauge
set to make sure discharge pressure doesn’t exceed 2,070
kPa (300 psi).
(2) Tighten all compressor mounting bolts, clutch mounting
bolt, and compressor drive belt. Check to assure clutch coilis tight (no rotation or wobble).
(3) Check refrigerant hoses for rubbing or interference that cancause unusual noises.
(4) Check refrigerant charge (See “Charging the System”).
(5) Recheck compressor noise as in Step 1.
(6) If noise still exists, loosen compressor mounting bolts and
retorque. Repeat Step 1.
(7) If noise continues, replace compressor and repeat Step 1.

If a new compressor is installed, first adjust the amount of
oil according to the procedures described below, and then
install the compressor.
(1) Measure the amount (X cc) of oil within the removed
compressor.(2) Wipe away (from the new compressor) the amount of
oil calculated according to the following formula, and
then install the new compressor.
New compressor oil amount 80 cc (4.9
