1. |
If the compressor is marginally operable, run the engine at
idle speed, and let the air conditioning work for a few minutes, then
shut the engine off. |
2. |
Disconnect the negative cable from the battery. |
3. |
Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/charging station. |
4. |
Loosen the drive belt.
|
5. |
Remove the nuts, then disconnect the suction line (A) and discharge line (B) from the compressor.
Plug or cap the lines immediately after disconnecting them to avoid moisture and dust contamination. |
6. |
Disconnect the compressor clutch connector (A), and then remove 4 mounting bolts and the compressor (B). |
1. |
Make sure of the length of compressor mounting bolts, and then tighten it A>B>C>D order.
Tightening torque :
20.0~32.9N.m (2.04~3.36kgf.m, 14.7~24.3 lb-ft)
|
|
2. |
Install in the reverse order of removal, and note these items
A. |
If you're installing a new compressor, drain all the
refrigerant oil from the removed compressor, and measure its volume,
Subtract the volume of drained oil from 120cc(4.20 oz.) the result is
the amount of oil you should drain from the new compressor (through the
suction fitting). |
B. |
Replace the O-rings with new ones at each fitting, and apply a
thin coat of refrigerant oil before installing them. Be sure to use the
right O-rings for R-134a to avoid leakage. |
C. |
To avoid contamination, do not return the oil to the container once dispensed, and never mix it with other refrigerant oils. |
D. |
Immediately after using the oil, replace the cap on the container and seal it to avoid moisture absorption. |
E. |
Do not spill the refrigerant oil on the vehicle; it may
damage the paint; if the refrigerant oil contacts the paint, wash it off
immediately. |
F. |
Adjust the drive belt (Refer to HA-14) |
G. |
Charge the system and test its performance. |
|
1. |
Check the plated parts of the limiter assembly (A) for color
changes, peeling or other damage. If there is damage, replace the
limiter assembly. |
2. |
Check the pulley (B) bearing play and drag by rotating the
pulley by hand. Replace the limiter assembly with a new one if it is
noisy or has excessive play/drag. |
External Control Valve Compressor Inspection (GDS) |
Compressor type: Fixed type compressor, External control valve, Internal control valve.
In cases of fixed type and internal control valve, it is possible to inspect compressor's operation with clutch noise.
When it comes to External control valve, however, it cannot be checked in this way bacause it doesn't have a clutch.
So, ECV should be inspected with GDS as below.
1. |
Connect GDS to the vehicle and select 'Aircon Compressor Test(ECV type)'
[ECV1] |
2. |
Make the vehicle ready as the GDS instruction on the monitor. (Turn off A/C 'switch' only)
[ECV2]
[ECV3] |
3. |
Check if other DTC codes are found before inspect ECV
compressor. If so, solve that problems first. If not, press 'OK' button
to continue.
Do not continue inspection if these DTC codes are found: B1241, B1242, B1672, B1685, B1686, B1687 |
[ECV4] |
4. |
Start inspection
[ECV5]
[ECV6]
Check if condenser fan is operating when condition is changed to 'ECV running' |
Relife valve will be operated if a condenser fan doesn't work
because of overpressure in the compressor. It helps the airconditiong
system to relieve by releasing refrigerant and oil. (Closed if relieved)
? Refill refrigerant and oil after operation of Relife valve
? Noise occurred when Relife vlave is in operation |
|
5. |
Check the result of inspection and click 'Check Detail' if
it's 'Check'. Follow the instruction and inspect ECV again from the
first step.
[ECV7]
[ECV8] |
1. |
Disconnect the negative cable from the battery. |
2. |
Remove the front right tire (A) from front hub.
Tightening torque:
88.2~107.8N.m (9.0~11.0kgf.m, 65.0~79.5 lb-ft)
|
|
3. |
Remove the under cover (A). |
4. |
Remove the side cover (A). |
5. |
Remove the wheel house (A). |
6. |
Remove the center bolt (A) while holding the disc & hub
assembly with a commercially available disc & hub assembly bolt
remover; Special tool number 09977-29000.
Tightening torque:
8.8~13.7N.m (0.9~1.4kgf.m, 6.5~10.1 lbf.ft)
|
|
7. |
Loosen the disc & hub assembly mounting screws (A) and then remove the disc & hub assembly (B).
Tightening torque:
4.9~6.9N.m (0.5~0.71kgf.m, 3.6~5.1 lbf.ft)
|
|
8. |
Remove the drive belt.
|
9. |
Remove retainer ring (A) with retainer ring pliers and then remove the pulley (B).
- |
Be careful not to damage the pulley (B) and compressor during removal/installation. |
- |
Once retainer ring (A) is removed, replace it with a new one. |
|
|
10. |
Reassemble the compressor clutch in the reverse order of disassembly, and note these items :
A. |
Clean the pulley and compressor sliding surfaces with non-petroleum solvent. |
B. |
Install new retainer rings, and make sure they are fully seated in the groove. |
C. |
Make sure that the pulley turns smoothly after its reassembled. |
