HEAT METHOD: When the problem seems to occur when the suspect area is heated. 2
NOTICE:3 WATER SPRINKLING METHOD:
(1)
(2)
4 OTHER: When a malfunction seems to occur when electrical load is excessive.When the malfunction seems to occur on a rainy day or in a
high-humidity condition. Heat the component that is the likely cause of the malfunction
with a hair dryer or similar object. Check to see if the malfunction
occurs.
Sprinkle water onto the vehicle and check to see if the malfunc-
tion occurs.
Turn on all electrical loads including the heater blower, head
lights, rear window defogger, etc. and check to see if the mal-
function occurs.ON HINT:
If a vehicle is subject to water leakage, the leaked water may
contaminate the ECU. When testing a vehicle with a water leak-
age problem, special caution must be taken.
Malfunc-
tion
Do not heat to more than 60°C (140°F). (Temperature
is limited not to damage the components.)
Do not apply heat directly to parts in the ECU. (1)
(2)
Never sprinkle water directly into the engine compart-
ment, but indirectly change the temperature and hu-
midity by applying water spray onto the radiator front
surface.
Never apply water directly onto the electronic compo-
nents. NOTICE:

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Preparation.
PREPARATION:
(a) Disconnect negative (-) terminal cable from the battery,
and wait at least 90 seconds.
(b) Remove steering wheel pad (See page SR-13).
(c) Disconnect connector of front passenger airbag assem-
bly (See page RS-21).
(d) Disconnect connector of airbag sensor assembly
(See page RS-33).
CAUTION:
Store the steering wheel pad with the front surface facing
upward.
2 Check source voltage.
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect negative (-) terminal cable to battery.
(b) Turn ignition switch ON.
CHECK:
Measure voltage at IG2 or ACC on sensor and operate electric
system. (defogger, wiper, headlight, heater blower, etc.)
OK:
Voltage: 10 - 14 V
NG Check the harness between battery and airbag
sensor assembly, check the battery and charg-
ing system.
OK

3 Does SRS warning light turn off?
PREPARATION:
(a) Turn ignition switch to LOCK.
(b) Connect steering wheel pad connector.
(c) Connect front passenger airbag assembly connector.
(d) Connect airbag sensor assembly connector.
(e) Turn ignition switch ON.
CHECK:
Operate electric system checked in defogger, wiper, headlight,
heater blower, etc. and check that SRS warning light goes off.
NO Check for DTCs. If a DTC is output, perform trou-
bleshooting for the DTC. If a normal code is out-
put, replace airbag sensor assembly.
YES
From the results of the above inspection, the malfunctioning part can now be considered normal.
To make sure of this, use the simulation method to check.

- CHARGINGCHARGING SYSTEM
1996 TERCEL (RM440U)

Connect the positive (+) tester probe of the amme-
ter to terminal B of the generator.

Connect the positive (+) tester probe of the voltme-
ter to terminal B of the generator.

Ground the negative (-) tester probe of the voltme-
ter.
(b) Check the charging circuit as follows:
With the engine running from idling to 2,000 rpm, check
the reading on the ammeter and voltmeter.
Standard amperage: 10 A or less
Standard voltage:
at 25°C (77°F)13.9 - 15.1 V
at 115°C (239°F)13.5 - 14.3 V
If the voltmeter reading is greater than standard voltage, re-
place the voltage regulator.
If the voltmeter reading is less than standard voltage, check the
voltage regulator and generator as follows:

With terminal F grounded, start the engine and
check the voltmeter reading of terminal B.

If the voltmeter reading is greater than standard
voltage, replace the voltage regulator.

If the voltmeter reading is less than standard volt-
age, check the generator.
7. INSPECT CHARGING CIRCUIT WITH LOAD
(a) With the engine running at 2,000 rpm, turn on the high
beam headlights and place the heater blower switch at
ºHIº.
(b) Check the reading on the ammeter.
Standard amperage: 30 A or more
If the ammeter reading is less than the standard amperage, re-
pair the generator.
HINT:
If the battery is fully charged, the indication will sometimes be
less than standard amperage.

1. INSPECT REFRIGERANT VOLUME
Observe the sight glass on the liquid tube.
Test conditions:
Running engine at 1,500 rpm
Blower speed control switch at ºHIº position
A/C switch ON
Temperature control set at ºMAX COOLº
Fully open the doors

2. INSPECT REFRIGERANT PRESSURE WITH MAN-
IFOLD GAUGE SET
This is a method in which the trouble is located by using a man-
ifold gauge set. Read the manifold gauge pressure when these
conditions are established.
Test conditions:
Temperature at the air inlet with the switch set
at RECURC is 30 - 35 °C (86 - 95 °F).
Engine running at 1,500 rpm.
Blower speed control switch set at high.
Temperature control set at max. cool.
HINT:
It should be noted that the gauge indications may vary slightly
due to ambient temperature conditions.
(1) Normally functioning refrigeration system.
Gauge reading:
Low pressure side:
0.15 - 0.25 MPa (1.5 - 2.5 kgf/cm
2)
High pressure side:
1.37 - 1.57 MPa (14 - 16 kgf/cm

3. INSPECT IDLE-UP SPEED
(a) Warm up engine.
(b) Inspect idle-up speed when the these conditions are es-
tablished.
Test conditions:
Blower speed control switch HI
Electrical lood OFF
A/C switch ON
Put gear shift in neutral
Standard idle-up speed: 800 - 900 rpm
If idle speed is not as specified, check the IAC valve and air in-
take system.
4. INSPECT FOR LEAKAGE OF REFRIGERANT
(a) Perform in these conditions:
Stop engine.
Secure good ventilation (If the gas leak detector
may not react to volatile gases which are not refrig-
erant, such as evaporated gasoline and exhaust
gas.)
Repeat the test 2 or 3 times.
Make sure that there is some refrigerant remaining
in the refrigeration system.
When compressor is OFF: approx. 392 - 588 kPa
(4 - 6 kgf/ cm
2, 57 - 85 psi)
(b) Bring the gas leak detector close to the drain hose before
performing the test.
HINT:
After the blower motor has stopped, leave the cooling unit
for more than 15 minutes.
Expose the gas leak detector sensor under the drain
hose.
When bring the gas leak detector close to the drain hose,
make sure that the gas leak detector does not react to the
volatile gases.
If such reaction is unavoidable, the vehicle must be lifted up.
(c) If gas leak is not detected on the drain hose, remove the
power transistor from the cooling unit. Then insert the gas
leak detector sensor into the unit and perform the test.
(d) Disconnect the connector and leave the pressure switch
for approx. 20 minutes. Then bring the gas leak detector
close to the pressure switch and perform the test.
(e) Bring the gas leak detector close to the refrigerant lines
and perform the test.
