area. Always wear eye protection when working around air conditioning
systems and R-12. The system's high pressure can cause severe injury
to eyes and skin if a hose were to burst. R-12 evaporates quickly
when exposed to atmosphere, freezing anything it contacts.
2) Use care when handling refrigerant containers. DO NOT drop
or strike containers or expose refrigerant containers to excessive
heat. Containers must never be heated more than 125
F (52 C). Never
expose R-12 directly to open flame.
CAUTION: When R-12 is exposed to an open flame, drawn into a running
engine, or detected with a Halide (propane) leak tester,
poisonous phosgene gas is formed. Keep work areas ventilated
and avoid running engines near work area.
USING INDIVIDUAL R-12 CANS
Disposable refrigerant cans (referred to as one pound cans)
have a flat type seal or a screw type seal, and proper can tap must be
used for each type. Be sure sealing gasket on can tap is in good
condition. A proper safety can tap will prevent refrigerant from
flowing back into open can, as tap has a one-way flow control.
NOTE: Recent findings by the EPA indicate that refrigerant is
harmful to the Earth's protective Ozone layer. When
discharging refrigerant avoid allowing refrigerant to enter
the atmosphere. Refrigerant recovery system should be used
when discharging the system.
MULTI-CAN DISPENSING VALVES
A multi-can dispensing valve allows attachment of several
cans of refrigerant, and is a good substitute when a bulk container is
not available. Cans are installed onto each leg of multi-can
dispensing valve in the same manner as the individual cans, and each
leg has its own can tap.
CAN TAP INSTALLATION FLAT TYPE SEAL CANS
On cam-lock or one-piece can taps, first turn the handle
outward to the fully open position. Securely engage locking lugs over
the can flange, and lock them in place by turning cam lock or locking
nut. Screw tap assembly into adapter so sealing gasket is fully seated
against the can top. Turn tap inward to pierce the can and close the
tap. DO NOT open tap until ready to purge the service hose or dispense
refrigerant into the system.
On 2-piece can taps, be certain tap handle is turned fully
inward to the closed position. Check that locking base is turned to
its outer limit. Securely engage locking lugs over the can flange.
Turn entire tap assembly (without disturbing the closed setting)
downward into the locking base to pierce the can. DO NOT open tap
until ready to dispense into system.
SCREW TYPE SEAL CANS
Ensure can tap is fully closed. Screw refrigerant can into
can tap fitting until tight. This will pierce the can. Connect tap to
center hose on manifold gauge set. DO NOT open tap until ready to
dispense R-12 into system.
WARNING: DO NOT open high side hand valve while air conditioning
Page 136 of 1333
system is in operation. This high pressure could rupture can
or fitting at safety can valve, resulting in damage and
personal injury.
CONNECTING LINES & FITTINGS
A new "O" ring should be used in all instances when
connecting lines and fittings (dip "O" ring in clean refrigeration oil
and make certain it is not twisted during installation). Always use
two wrenches to avoid twisting or distorting lines and fittings,
tighten coupling nuts securely.
PLACING SYSTEM IN OPERATION
After component replacement and/or system servicing has been
completed and all connections have been made, proceed as follows:
1) Evacuate the system using a vacuum pump.
2) Charge the system with new R-12 (refrigerant) according t\
o
each individual vehicle as outlined in the
GENERAL COOLING SYSTEM SERVICING article. Also see Refrigerant
Capacity in this Section.
3) Leak test the system, with particular attention to all new
connections and components.
4) Make a performance test of the system. Never assume that a
recharging has automatically corrected a problem.
COMPRESSOR REMOVAL INFORMATION - ISOLATION METHOD
On systems which have compressors equipped with stem-type
service valves (Tecumseh), it is possible to isolate the compressor
for removal.
Isolating
Turn both high and low pressure manual valves to extreme
clockwise (front seat) position. Loosen cap on high pressure manual
valve connection to compressor and allow gas to escape until
compressor is relieved of pressure.
COMPRESSOR REMOVAL INFORMATION - DISCHARGE METHOD
This procedure is to be used on vehicles which have
compressor equipped with Schrader service valves. In these cases, the
compressor cannot be isolated and the system must be discharged, using
approved refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment, prior to compressor
removal.

terminal "B" and negative lead to positive battery terminal. Reconnect
negative battery cable.
3) Start engine. Turn accessories on and adjust engine speed
until ammeter indicates 20 amps, and note voltmeter reading. If
voltmeter indicates .2 volt or less, system is okay.
4) If voltage is greater than .2 volt, wiring is defective
between alternator terminal "B", fusible link and battery positive
terminal. Disconnect negative battery cable, and remove test
equipment.
ALTERNATOR OUTPUT TEST
NOTE: During alternator output test, a slightly discharged battery
should be used as a fully charged battery may not allow full
alternator output.
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Disconnect negative
battery cable. Disconnect alternator output wire from terminal "B".
Install positive lead of 100-amp ammeter to terminal "B" and negative
lead to disconnected output lead.
CAUTION: Tighten each connection securely as heavy current flow will
exist. DO NOT use clips on ammeter.
2) Connect positive voltmeter lead (0-20 volts) to alternato\
r
terminal "B" and negative lead to ground. Install tachometer, and
reconnect negative battery cable.
3) Ensure voltmeter indicates battery voltage. If no voltage
exists, an open circuit is present in wire between alternator terminal
"B" and battery negative terminal. Check grounds and fusible link.
4) Turn headlights on, and start engine. Set headlights at
high beam and heater switch on HIGH. Quickly accelerate engine speed
to 2500 RPM and note alternator output current registered on the
ammeter. Minimum output should be within specification. Refer to the
ALTERNATOR MINIMUM OUTPUT SPECIFICATIONS table.
NOTE: Output voltage changes with electrical load and temperature.
Ensure proper electrical load is applied while checking
output. Nominal output may not be obtained if alternator or
ambient temperature is excessive. Allow to cool, and recheck
output. Alternator output is stamped on metal plate attached
to alternator case.
5) If minimum output is not obtained and alternator wiring is
okay, repair alternator. Disconnect negative battery cable, and remove
test equipment.
REGULATED VOLTAGE TEST
NOTE: Ensure battery is fully charged and proper drive belt
tension exists.
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Disconnect negative
battery cable. Install a digital voltmeter between alternator terminal
"S" and ground. See Fig. 10. Connect positive voltmeter lead to
terminal "S" of alternator. Connect negative voltmeter lead to ground.

Control Relay
Multipurpose relay switches power to vehicle sensors and
actuators including airflow sensor, crank angle sensor, idle speed
control, injectors and fuel pump. When ignition switch is turned to ON
position, ECU energizes coils controlling injectors, airflow sensor
and idle speed control. When ignition switch is turned to START
position, ECU energizes coils (through inhibitor switch on A/T models)\
to supply power to fuel pump. Relay failure will cause a no-start
condition. For testing procedure, see SYSTEM & COMPONENT TESTING
article.
