Clamp Installation Note
- When installing a new stator and thermal protector, replace the clamp.
Scheme 70
- When installing a new pressure plate, A/C compressor pulley, stator, or A/C compressor body, replace the snap ring.
Scheme 71
Scheme 72
- Measure the clearance around the entire circumference between the pressure plate and N C compressor pulley using a thickness gauge.
- Verify that the clearance. If not within the specification, remove the pressure plate and adjust the clearance by changing the shim (0.2 mm {0.008 in}, 0.5 mm {0.02 in}) or the number of shims. Magnetic clutch clearance 0.3-0.5 mm {0.012-0.019 in}
Scheme 73
Scheme 74
- Connect battery positive voltage to magnetic clutch terminal A and the A/C compressor body to ground.
- Verify that the magnetic clutch operates. If there is any malfunction, replace the stator and thermal protector.
Scheme 75
- Disconnect the negative battery cable.
- Pry the solar radiation sensor from the dashboard using a flathead screwdriver wrapped with protective tape.
- Remove in the order indicated in the table. CAUTION: After the solar radiation sensor removal, the sensor connector could fall in the dashboard making the installation difficult. Therefore, hold the rooted end of the sensor connector using a clip or similar tool to prevent it from falling.
- Install in the reverse order of removal.
Scheme 76
- Shine a fluorescent light or expose the solar radiation sensor to natural sunlight.
- Using a tester, connect the positive (+) lead to solar radiation sensor terminal A, the negative (-) lead to terminal B, and verify that a voltage value is output. If the voltage is 0 V, replace the solar radiation sensor.
Scheme 77
- Disconnect the negative battery cable.
- Remove the radiator grille, (normal bumper)
- Remove the under cover, (sport bumper)
- Remove in the order indicated in the table.
- Install in the reverse order of removal.
Scheme 78
- Measure the temperature around the ambient temperature sensor and measure the resistance between the ambient temperature sensor terminal. If the characteristics of the ambient temperature sensor are not as shown in the graph, replace the ambient temperature sensor.
Scheme 79
- Disconnect the negative battery cable.
- Remove the following parts: Side wall (See «SIDE WALL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION»(ref-292888-S04204557052008080600000) .) Shift lever component (MTX) (See «MANUAL TRANSAXLE SHIFT MECHANISM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION»(ref-292950-S13529176852008080600000) .) Selector lever component (ATX) (See «SELECTOR LEVER COMPONENT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION»(ref-292885-S14884822382008080600000) .) Front console (See «FRONT CONSOLE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION»(ref-292888-S22395177942008080600000) .) Front scuff plate inner (passenger's side) (See «FRONT SCUFF PLATE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION»(ref-292888-S11748287832008080600000) .) Front side trim (passenger's side) (See «FRONT SIDE TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION»(ref-292888-S14675185142008080600000) .) Side panel, (passenger's side) (See «SIDE PANEL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION»(ref-292888-S04204557052008080600000) .) Glove compartment (See «GLOVE COMPARTMENT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION»(ref-292888-S03337365032008080600000) .)
- Remove the air hose.
- Disconnect the passenger compartment temperature sensor connector.
- Insert a tape-wrapped flathead screwdriver into the convex part of the passenger compartment temperature sensor and pry it to remove the passenger compartment temperature sensor together with passenger compartment temperature sensor holder.
- Remove the passenger compartment temperature sensor.
- Install in the reverse order of removal.
Scheme 80
- Measure the temperature around the passenger compartment temperature sensor and measure the resistance between passenger compartment temperature sensor terminals A and B. If the characteristics of the passenger compartment temperature sensor are not as shown in the graph, replace the passenger compartment temperature sensor.
