ADJUSTMENTS
NOTE: For adjustment procedures, see HEATER SYSTEM article.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
NO COOLING
1) Ensure compressor clutch is operating. If compressor
clutch is operating, go to next step. If compressor clutch is not
operating, check fuses and A/C switch. Check dual-pressure switch.
Check air inlet sensor and air thermosensor. Check A/C compressor
relay. Check A/C compressor clutch coil. Check A/C control unit.
2) Ensure system is properly charged with correct amount of
refrigerant. Evacuate and charge system as necessary. Ensure receiver-
drier is not clogged. Check compressor belt for proper tension. Check
for clogged expansion valve. Check compressor operation. Repair or
replace components as necessary.
INSUFFICIENT AIRFLOW
Check for air leakage at air duct joint. Check for frost on
evaporator. Ensure blower motor is operating properly. Check for
obstructed air intake.
INSUFFICIENT COOLING
Ensure system is properly charged with correct amount of
refrigerant and free of air and moisture. Evacuate and charge system
as necessary. Ensure receiver-drier is not clogged. Ensure sufficient
airflow through condenser exists. Check compressor belt for proper
tension. Check compressor operation. Repair or replace compressor as
necessary. Check for clogged expansion valve. Replace expansion valve
as necessary. Check A/C compressor clutch coil.
INTERMITTENT COOL AIR
Check for air or moisture in system. Evacuate and charge
system as necessary. Check for expansion valve malfunction. Replace
expansion valve if necessary. Check compressor belt for proper
tension.
TESTING
* PLEASE READ THIS FIRST *
WARNING: To avoid injury from accidental air bag deployment, read and
carefully follow all SERVICE PRECAUTIONS and DISABLING &
ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM procedures in AIR BAG RESTRAINT
SYSTEM article.
NOTE: For testing procedures not covered in this article, see
HEATER SYSTEM article.
A/C SYSTEM PERFORMANCE
1) Park vehicle out of direct sunlight. Install A/C gauge
set. Start engine and allow it to idle at 1000 RPM. Turn A/C on. Set
A/C controls to recirculated air, panel (vent) mode and full cold
Page 95 of 1501
Removal & Installation
Discharge A/C system, using approved refrigerant
recovery/recycling equipment. Loosen idler pulley, and remove belt.
Disconnect compressor electrical connector. Remove high and low
pressure lines and "O" rings from compressor. Remove compressor
mounting bolts. Remove compressor. To install, reverse removal
procedure. See Fig. 10.
