COMPRESSOR SHAFT SEAL
Service Precaution
When replacing the shaft seal assembly, pressure relief
valve or control switches, it will be necessary to recover
the refrigerant. Other than clutch repair procedures, the
same holds true for any disassembly of the compressor.
A clean workbench covered with a sheet of clean
paper, and a place (clean trays, etc) for all parts being
removed and replaced is important, as is the use of
proper clean service tools.
CAUTION: Any attempt to use makeshift or
inadequate service tools or equipment may result
in damage and/or improper compressor operation.
All parts required for servicing the internal compressor
are protected by a preservative process and packaged
in a manner which will eliminate the necessity of
cleaning, washing or flushing of the parts. The parts
can be used in the internal assembly just as they are
removed from the service package. Seals and
protective packaging should be left intact until just
prior to installation.
If the compressor rear head, front head or cylinder and
shaft assembly is to be serviced or replaced, the oil in
the compressor must be drained, measured, recorded
and replaced.

Seal Leak Detection
A shaft seal should not be changed because of small
amounts of oil found on an adjacent surface but only
after actual refrigerant leakage is found using an
approved leak detector.
CAUTION: Handling and care of seal protector is
important. If seal protector is nicked or the bottom
flared, the new seal may be damaged during
installation.
Removal
1. Recover the refrigerant using Refrigerant Recovery
System.
2. Loosen and reposition compressor in mounting
brackets, if necessary.
3. Remove clutch plate and hub assembly from
compressor as described previously.
4. Remove the shaft seal retainer ring, using snap ring
pliers.

oil. Install new valve and torque in place, 9.0 Nꞏm
(6.1 ft lbs)
3. Evacuate and recharge the system.
4. Leak test system.
COMPRESSOR OIL
Compressor Oil Check
The oil used to lubricate the compressor is circulating
with the refrigerant.
Whenever replacing any component of the system or a
large amount of gas leakage occurs, add oil to maintain
the original amount of oil.
Checking and Adjusting Oil Quantity for
Used Compressor
1. Perform oil return operation. Refer to Oil Return
Operation in this section.
2. Discharge and recover refrigerant and remove the
compressor.
3. Drain the compressor oil and measure the extracted
oil with a measuring cylinder.
4. If the amount of oil drained is much less than 90 cc
(3.0 fl. oz.), some refrigerant may have leaked out.
Conduct a leak tests on the connections of each
system, and if necessary, repair or replace faulty
parts.
5. Check the compressor oil contamination. (Refer to
Contamination of Compressor Oil in this section.)
6. Adjust the oil level following the next procedure
below.7. Install the compressor, then evacuate, charge and
perform the oil return operation.
8. Check system operation.
When it is impossible to preform oil return
operation, the compressor oil should be checked in
the following order:
1. Discharge and recover refrigerant and remove the
compressor.
2. Drain the compressor oil and measure the extracted
oil with a measuring cylinder.
3. Check the oil for contamination.
4. If more than 90 cc (3.0 fl. oz.) of oil is extracted from
the compressor, supply the same amount of oil to
the compressor to be installed. If the amount of oil
extracted is less than 90 cc (3.0 fl. oz.), recheck the
compressor oil in the following order:
5. Supply 90 cc (3.0 fl. oz.) of oil to the compressor
and install it onto the vehicle.
6. Evacuate and recharge with the proper amount of
refrigerant.
7. Perform the oil return operation.
8. Remove the compressor and recheck the amount of
oil.
9. Adjust the compressor oil, if necessary.
Checking and Adjusting for Compressor
Replacement
The oil is not charged in compressor (service parts). So
it is necessary to charge the proper amount of oil to the
new compressor. (Oil Capacity)

2. Discharge and recover the refrigerant and remove
the compressor.
3. Drain the compressor oil and measure the extracted
oil.
4. Check the compressor oil for contamination.
5. Adjust the oil level as required.
6. Evacuate, charge and perform the oil return
operation.
7. Check the system operation.
Contamination of Compressor Oil
Unlike engine oil, no cleaning agent is added to the
compressor oil. Even if the compressor runs for a long
period of time (approximately one season), the oil never
becomes contaminated as long as there is nothing
wrong with the compressor or its method of use.
Inspect the extracted oil for any of the following
conditions:
The capacity of the oil has increased.
The oil has changed to red.
Foreign substances, metal powder, etc., are present
in the oil.
If any of these conditions exists, the compressor
oil is contaminated. Whenever contaminated
compressor oil is discovered, the receiver/drier
must be replaced.
Oil Return Operation
There is close affinity between the oil and the
refrigerant. During normal operation, part of the oil
recirculates with the refrigerant in the system. When
checking the amount of oil in the system, or replacing
any component of the system, the compressor must be
run in advance for oil return operation. The procedure
is as follows:
1. Open all the doors and the engine hood.
2. Start the engine and air conditioning switch to "ON"
and set the fan control knob at its highest position.
3. Run the compressor for more than 20 minutes
between 800 and 1,000 rpm in order to operate the
system.
4. Stop the engine.
Replacement of Component Parts
When replacing the system component parts, supply
the following amount of oil to the component parts to be
installed.
Compressor Leak Testing (External and
Internal)
Bench-Check Procedure
1. Install test plate J-39893 on rear head of compressor.
2. Using Refrigerant Recovery System, attach center
hose of manifold gage set on charging station to a
refrigerant drum standing in an upright drum.
3. Connect charging station high and low pressure
lines to corresponding fittings on test plate J-39893.
Suction port (low-side) of compressor has large
internal opening. Discharge port (high-side) has
smaller internal opening into compressor and
deeper recess.
4. Open low pressure control, high pressure control
and refrigerant control on charging station to allow
refrigerant vapor to flow into compressor.
5. Using a leak detector, check for leaks at pressure
relief valve, rear head switch location, compressor
front and rear head seals, center cylinder seal,
through bolt head gaskets and compressor shaft
seal. After checking, shut off low pressure control
and high-pressure control on charging station.
6. If an external leak is present, perform the necessary
corrective measures and recheck for leaks to make
certain the leak has been connected.
7. Recover the refrigerant.
8. Disconnect both hoses from the test plate J-39893.
9. Add 90 ml (3 oz.) new PAG lubricant to the
compressor assembly. Rotate the complete
compressor assembly (not the crankshaft or drive
plate hub) slowly several turns to distribute oil to all
cylinder and piston areas.
10. Install a M9
1.25 threaded nut on the compressor
crankshaft if the drive plate and clutch assembly are
not installed.
11. Using a box-end wrench or socket and handle,
rotate the compressor crankshaft or clutch drive
plate on the crankshaft several turns to insure
piston assembly to cylinder wall lubrication.
12. Using Refrigerant Recovery System, connect the
charging station high-pressure line to the test plate
J-39893 high-side connector.
13. Using Refrigerant Recovery System, connect the
charging station low-pressure line to the low
pressure port of the test plate J-39893. Oil will drain
out of the compressor suction port if the compressor
is positioned with the suction port downward. (Component parts to be (Amount of Oil)

DRIVE LINE CONTROL SYSTEM (TOD) 4B2–2
General Description
C07RW014–1
TOD (Torque on Demand) system is traction state control
system to vehicle.
Transfer Position and Drive Mode
Three drive modes can be selected through operation of
4WD AUTO switch and transfer lever.
Transfer Position
4WD AUTO SWModeDrive mode
HIGHON (NORMAL)2HRear wheel drive
OFF (PUSHED)TODElectronically controlled torque split
four wheel drive
4LON/OFF4LLow-speed mechanical lock-up four
wheel drive
The electronic control unit (ECU) judges the signals from
the transfer lever and 4WD AUTO switch, and controls
the transfer drive mode and shift-on-the-fly system
status.
TOD Control
The TOD position usually drives the rear wheels, and
transmits the torque to the front wheels with the help of
electronically controlled torque split mechanism
according to running conditions encountered. The driving
force is directly transmitted to the rear wheels. This force
is split by the transfer and delivered to the front wheels.
The magnitude of the torque transmitted to the front
wheels is controlled by changing the pressing force of the
multi plate disk clutch built in the transfer unit. Thepressing force of the clutch is controlled by changing the
duty cycle to the electromagnetic coil mounted to the rear
of the clutch. When the clutch is completely disengaged,
the rear wheels are driven. When the clutch is completely
engaged, a rigid four wheel drive mode is obtained. The
torque split status is controlled continuously between the
rear wheel and four wheel drive modes. This system
includes front and rear speed sensors, and receives
throttle position sensor information from ECM.
The control unit receives signals sent from these sensors
and changes the pressing force of the multi plate disk
clutch to determine the torque distribution on the front and
rear wheels. Therefore, when the slip of the rear wheels is
increased against the current torque level in the normal
rear wheel drive mode, the control unit detects the slip
