DISC/P. CLUTCH REACTION PLATE
(1) Assemble the clutch pressure plate, clutch plate and
clutch reaction plate, arranging them by the missing
tooth [See figure
@I.
NOTEThis is so the automatic transmission fluid escapes
easily and there is good cooling of the plate and disc.
(2) Assembly the plates so the beveled side is as shown inthe figure.
(3) Assemble so the thickest plate (clutch reaction plate) is
on the snap ring side.
1.SELECTION OF SNAP RING
Check clearance between the snap ring and clutch reaction
plate. To check the clearance, hold entire circumference ofthe clutch reaction plate down with 50
N (11 Ibs.) force. If
clearance is out of standard value, select a snap ring to
obtain the standard value.
Standard value:
0.7-0.9 mm (.028-.035 in;)
0.8-1.0 mm (.032-.039 in.)

sensor
Air inlet
sensor
E>aporator(3)
Set the gauge manifold in place and check whether or not
the pressure at the high-pressure side has become the
dual-pressure switch activation pressure.
(4) Replace the switch if, under ordinary conditions, there is no
continuity.Caution
The condition can be considered to be satisfactory if
there is continuity.
Never increase the pressure in a deliberate attempt to
obtain an abnormally high temperature, because to do
so risks blowing the compressor relief valve.AIR-THERM0 SENSOR AND AIR-INLET SENSOR
If frost forms on the surfaces of the evaporator fins, the cause
might be a malfunction of
air-therm0 sensor.
The temperature of the air-flowing from the evaporator’s outlet
is sensed by the thermistor, and the signals conveying this dataare input to the air conditioner control unit, thus switching the
compressor’s clutch ON or OFF.
This functions when the evaporator’s air-flow is low, or the
evaporator’s fins are clogged by dust, etc., or when the amountof refrigerant is insufficient.
These sensors detect the temperature within the passenger
compartment and the temperature at the cooling unit inlet,
thus causing changes of the resistance value, and this data is
provided to the air conditioner control unit as input.
How to Test the Therm0 Sensor and Air-Inlet Sensor
(1) Disconnect the sensor’s connector at the evaporator case,
and by using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance. The
resistance is normal if it is within the range shown in the
figure at the left; if the resistance is not normal, replace.
(2) If the sensor is normal, there is a malfunction of the air
conditioner control unit, and it should be replaced.
Standard value:
Passenger compartment temperature sensor resist-
ance value:
0°C (32°F)4,852+243 (S-2)
15°C (59°F)2,341+234 (S-2)
25°C (77°F)1,500+150 (52)
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SWITCH
<2.0L DOHC Engine>
The engine coolant temperature switch is connected in series
with the compressor magnetic clutch power relay.
It disengages the compressor when the temperature of
engine coolant rises above
115°C (239°F).This is designed to prevent engine overheating when cooling
air is not sufficient for the condenser and radiator. If the enginecoolant temperature switch operates to disengage the com-
pressor, check for the condenser and radiator surface condi-
tions, belt tension and engine coolant level and correct, if
necessary.
