|
|
|
Refer to Inspection Procedure 8 "The A/C compressor and clutch assembly
does not work" .
|
|
|
|
STEP 6. Refrigerant level check.
|
|
Check that the refrigerant level is adequate (Refer to GROUP 55A -Refrigerant
level check, draining and charging ).
|
|
Q.
Is the check result normal?
|
|
YES : Go to Step 7.
|
|
|
|
Correct the refrigerant amount.
|
|
|
|
STEP 7. Check the dual pressure switch.
|
|
Refer to GROUP 55A - Pressure switch check .
|
|
Q.
Is the dual pressure switch in good condition?
|
|
Go to Step 8.
|
|
|
|
Replace the dual pressure switch (Refer to GROUP 55A - Refrigerant Line ).
|
|
|
|
STEP 8. Voltage measurement at dual pressure switch connector.
|
|
(1)Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
|
|
(2)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
|
|
(3)Voltage between terminal 1 and body earth. OK: System voltage
|
|
Q.
Is the check result normal?
|
|
Go to Step 10.
|
|
|
|
Go to Step 9.
|
|
|
|
