SIGHT GLASS REFRIGERANT LEVEL
TEST
M1552008400378
1. Start the engine.
2. Operate the air-conditioner, and then set the
temperature to maximum cooling.
3. Hold the engine speed at 1500 r/min.
4. Check the refrigerant level (bubble state) through
the sight glass.
CAUTION
Use the low-pressure service valve.
NOTE: Use the refrigerant recovery station to
charge the specified refrigerant because you can
not calculate the amount of the refrigerant
properly with the sight glass.
MAGNETIC CLUTCH TESTM1552008500405
1. Disconnect the magnetic clutch connector to the
magnetic clutch.
2. Connect positive battery voltage directly to the
connector for the magnetic clutch.3. If the magnetic clutch is normal, there will be a
"click." If the pulley and armature do not make
contact ("click"), there is a malfunction.

DUAL PRESSURE SWITCH CHECKM1552010400320
1. Remove the dual pressure switch connector and
connect the high/low pressure side terminals
located on the harness side as shown in the
illustration..
2. Install a gauge manifold to the high-pressure side
service valve of the refrigerant line. (Refer to
P.55-98, P.55-99.)
3. When the high/low pressure sides of the dual
pressure switch are at operation pressure (ON)
the resistance should less than two ohms
between the terminals. If open circuit, replace the
switch. Items State
Insufficient Many bubbles are seen.
If refrigerant is extremely
low, it appears white.
Sufficient or excess

CHARGING M1552001200362
1. With the handles turned back all the way (valve
closed), install the adaptor valve to the
low-pressure side of the gauge manifold.
2. Connect the charging hose (blue) to the adaptor
valve.
3. Connect the quick joint (for low-pressure) to the
charging hose (blue).
CAUTION
•Use tools that are suited to R134a.
•To install the quick joint, press section when
connecting, run your hand along the hose
while pressing to ensure that there are no
bends in the hose.
4. Connect the quick joint (for low-pressure) to the
low- pressure service valve.
NOTE: The low-pressure service valve should be
connected to the flexible suction hose.5. Close the high and low-pressure valves of the
gauge manifold.
CAUTION
Be sure to connect the power plug of the vacuum
pump to the vacuum pump adapter, and then
connect the power plug of the adapter to a 100-V
outlet.
6. Install the vacuum pump adaptor to the vacuum
pump.
7. Connect the charging hose (yellow) to the R-134a
connection port of the vacuum pump adaptor.
8. Tighten the adaptor valve handle (valve open).
9. Open the low-pressure valve of the gauge
manifold.
10.Turn the power switch of the vacuum pump to the
ON position.
NOTE: Even if the vacuum pump power switch is
turned ON, the vacuum pump will not operate
because of the power supply connection in step
(6).
CAUTION
Do not operate the compressor for evacuation.
11.Turn the vacuum pump adaptor switch to the
R134a side to start the vacuum pump.
12.Evacuate to a vacuum reading of 100 kPa or
higher (takes approx. 10 minutes).
