DIAGNOSIS OF ABNORMAL NOISE
There are various types of noise, ranging from those produced in the engine compartment to those from the pas-
senger compartment, also from rumbling noises to whistling noises.
ABNORMAL NOISE FROM COMPRESSOR
ConditionPossible CauseCorrection

During compressor operation, a
rumbling noise is heard
proportional to engine
revolutions.
Inadequate clearance in piston
area (piston or swash-plate).
Repair or replace compressor as
necessary.

A loud noise is heard at a certain
rpm, disproportionately to engine
revolution.
Loose or faulty V-belt.

Loose mounting bolts.
Adjust V-belt tension, or
replace belt.

Retighten mounting bolts.

A loud rattle is heard at low
engine rpm.
Loose compressor center bolt.
Retighten center bolt.

Replace compressor if it was
operated in this condition for a
long time.
ABNORMAL NOISE FROM MAGNETIC CLUTCH
ConditionPossible CauseCorrection

A rumbling noise is heard when
compressor is not operating.
Worn or damaged bearings.
Replace bearings.

A chattering noise is heard when
compressor is engaged.
Faulty clutch gap (excessive).

Worn clutch friction surface.

Compressor oil leaked from shaft
seal, contaminating the friction
surface.
Adjust clutch gap.

Replace clutch.

Replace compressor shaft oil
seal.
ABNORMAL NOISE FROM TUBING
ConditionPossible CauseCorrection

A droning noise is heard inside
vehicle, but not particularly
noticeable in engine
compartment.
Faulty tubing clamps.

Resonance caused by pulsation
from variations in refrigerant
pressure.
Reposition clamps or increase
the number of clamps.

Attach a silencer to tubing, or
modify its position and length.
ABNORMAL NOISE FROM CONDENSER
ConditionPossible CauseCorrection

Considerable vibration in
condenser.
Resonance from condenser
mounting stay and body.
Firmly insert a silencer between
condenser mounting stay and
body.

COMPRESSION SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
Compressor troubles are mainly following three types: gas leakage, noise and insufficient pressure.
Compressor gas leakages in most cases develop from the shaft seal. When detecting gas leakage, always use
a leak tester. If a small amount of oil seeps out from the shaft seal, there is no necessity of replacing the seal. The
shaft seal has been designed to allow a small amount of oil to leak out for lubricating purpose. Thus, the shaft seal
should be replaced only when a large amount of compressor oil is leaking out or when gas leakage is discovered
by using gas tester.
In regard to noise and insufficient pressure, repairs should be made only after diagnosing the trouble properly.

A / C EVAPORATOR THERMISTOR
(EVAPORATOR TEMPERATURE SENSOR)
A thermistor is a temperature sensor to sense the temperature of
air discharged from evaporator. The electrical characteristic is
shown in the figure.
When temperature is lower than preset temperature, amplifier
makes magnet clutch turn off to prevent evaporator from frosting.
INSPECTION
Check resistance between A / C evaporator thermistor (1) termi-
nals.
If check results are as not specified, replace thermistor.
