    ADJUST COMPRESSOR OIL


    1. When replacing the cooler compressor with a new one, gradually discharge the refrigerant gas from the service valve, and drain the following amount of oil from the new cooler compressor before installation.

      Standard
      (Oil capacity inside the new cooler compressor: 120 + 15 cc (4.06 + 0.51 fl.oz.)) - (Remaining oil amount in the removed compressor and magnetic clutch) = (Oil amount to be removed from the new compressor when replacing)
      Note:

      • When checking the compressor oil level, follow the A/C system precautions.

      • If a new cooler compressor is installed without removing some oil remaining in the pipes of the vehicle, the oil amount will be too large. This prevents heat exchange in the refrigerant cycle and causes refrigerant failure.

      • If the volume of oil remaining in the removed cooler compressor is too small, check for oil leakage.

      • Be sure to use ND-OIL 8 or equivalent for compressor oil.

      *1: For vehicles with the 2TR-FE engine which have neither the rear cooler nor cool box, the refrigerant charging amount changes based on region.

      Note:

      • Do not operate the cooler compressor before charging refrigerant as the cooler compressor will not work properly without any refrigerant, and will overheat.

      • Approximately 100 g (3.53 oz.) of refrigerant may need to be charged after bubbles disappear. The refrigerant amount should be checked by measuring its quantity, and not with the sight glass.

    WARM UP ENGINE


    1. Warm up the engine at less than 1850 rpm for 2 minutes or more after charging the refrigerant.

      Note:

      Be sure to warm up the compressor when turning the A/C switch is on after removing and installing the cooler refrigerant lines (including the compressor), to prevent damage to the compressor.

    CHECK FOR REFRIGERANT GAS LEAK


    1. After recharging the refrigerant gas, check for refrigerant gas leakage using a halogen leak detector.

    2. Perform the operation under these conditions:


      • Stop the engine.

      • Secure good ventilation (the halogen leak detector may react to volatile gases other than refrigerant, such as evaporated gasoline or exhaust gas).

      • Repeat the test 2 or 3 times.

      • Make sure that some refrigerant remains in the refrigeration system. When compressor is off: approximately 392 to 588 kPa (4.0 to 6.0 kgf/cm2, 57 to 85 psi).

    3. A01DM2DE34

      Using a halogen leak detector, check the refrigerant line for leakage.

      Table 3. Text in Illustration
      *1 Halogen Leak Detector
      *a Check for Leakage

    4. If a gas leak is not detected on the drain hose, remove the blower motor control (blower resistor) from the cooling unit. Insert the halogen leak detector sensor into the unit and perform the test.

    5. Disconnect the connector and wait for approximately 20 minutes. Bring the halogen leak detector close to the pressure switch and perform the test.
