A/C COMPRESSOR MAINTENANCE FOR
STORED VEHICLES
Models:
All Models
Technical Service
BULLETIN
July 21, 2000

When a vehicle is stored for a long period (more than one month), the volume of oil
in the A/C compressor may decrease due to oil flow into the condenser, pipes, etc.
If the A/C system is turned on at high engine RPM after a long storage period, A/C
compressor damage may result.
To minimize the possibility of damage to the A/C compressor while storing a vehicle,
perform the following recommended maintenance procedure at
least once a month to
lubricate the compressor.
Recommended
Maintenance Procedure For A/C Compressor Lubrication:
1. Turn
off A/C and blower switches prior to starting engine.
2. Start and warm±up engine until engine speed drops below 1,000 RPM.
3. Turn on the A/C system (including the rear A/C) using the following settings:
A/C switch: On
Blower Speed: High
Engine Speed: Below 1,000 RPM
4. Keep A/C on with engine idling for at least 30 seconds.
5. Turn off A/C system and stop engine.

The cassette tape head and capstan should be cleaned regularly to prevent poor sound
quality and/or cassettes from jamming.
The following conditions can easily be avoided by regularly cleaning the head with a tape
cleaner and only using good quality cassettes.
Since the tape head contacts the cassette tape, the tape head accumulates metal oxides
and dirt particles from the tape. In time, a layer of dirt forms on the tape head resulting in
poor transfer of information between the tape and the tape head. This typically causes a
reduction of the higher frequencies or a reduction of the brightness in sound quality.
Tape speed is controlled by the tape capstan and pinch rollers. If the capstan and pinch
rollers accumulate dirt, the tape may slip causing the music to play too fast or too slow.
Dirt can make the capstans sticky, causing the tape to become entangled in the cassette
mechanism. This can cause the cassette to become jammed in the player.
To reduce the occurrence of these conditions, the following approved cassette cleaners are
available through the non±parts system (Material Distribution Center).

The following precautions should be taken to keep cassettes in good condition:
1. Remove the cassette from the player when the cassette is not in use.
2. Store the cassette in its case.
3. Store the cassette in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight and magnetic
components such as speakers.
4. Avoid touching the tape itself. This could result in poor sound quality or sound drop out.
5. Keep the tape tightly wound as shown in
figure 2. Tape speed can be affected by
loosely wound tape.
6. Avoid inserting a cassette into the player if
the cassette label is loose or peeling as
shown in figure 3. This can cause a
cassette to become stuck in the player.
7. Use cassettes that are 90 minutes or
less in length. Cassettes over 90
minutes use extremely thin tape that is
subject to stretch, resulting in poor
sound quality.

Vehicles with power antennas may exhibit audible electrical noise on weak AM stations when
various electrical accessories (turn signals, rear defogger, cruise control, brakes, etc.) are operated.
Poor antenna grounding can cause this condition.
To eliminate or reduce the intensity of the noise, use the following repair procedure:

ALL MODELS
REPAIR PROCEDURE:
1. Tune the radio to a strong, static±free AM
station and slowly move the tip of the
antenna mast forward and back
approximately 2 inches (Fig. 1). If static
noise is not heard, go to Step 2. If static
noise is heard during antenna movement,
replace the antenna mast and go to Step 3.

NOTE:Do not touch the antenna mast with
your bare hands. Use a glove or
nonmetallic object to move the
antenna. (If you touch the antenna
with your hands, you will change the
antenna sensitivity).
2. Remove the antenna mast and inspect the
base of the mast for corrosion and damage
(Fig. 2). Clean with 1500 grit sandpaper.
3. Remove the antenna assembly and inspect
the inner fender around the antenna hole
for corrosion (Fig. 3). Clean with 1500 grit
sandpaper.

REPAIR PROCEDURE (Cont'd):
4. Remove the antenna spacer grommet at the
top of the antenna assembly and inspect for
corrosion (Fig. 4). Clean with 1500 grit
sandpaper.
5. Reinstall the antenna assembly. Be sure to
install the external antenna nut (escutcheon)
first. Then install the nut which holds the
assembly to the inner bracket (Fig. 5).
6. Check to make sure that the teeth on the
antenna spacer grommet make good contact
with the inner fender well (Fig. 6).

7. Inspect the antenna cable connection and
clean as necessary (Fig. 7). Reconnect the
antenna cable, the wire harness and the drain
hose.

NOTE:
After ªDinghyº Towing, or at the recommended distance limits, let the Engine idle for
more than 3 minutes before operating the vehicle or resuming towing.
NOTE:
Vehicles that are Dinghy towable will not sustain internal damage to the transmission
or transfer components, as long as speed/distance limits are observed. The
transmission must
be placed in the ªneutralº position when Dinghy towing. Dinghy
towing these vehicles does not eliminate the possibility of damage to other vehicle
systems (Body, Chassis, Electrical Systems, etc.). Affected
