On-vehicle inspection
1. INSPECT REFRIGERANT PRESSURE WITH MANIFOLD GAUGE SET
(a) This method uses a manifold gauge set to locate problem areas. Read the manifold gauge pressure when these conditions are established.
Test conditions:
(b) Gauge readings (Reference)
(1) Normally functioning refrigeration system
Gauge reading
(2) The A/C system periodically changes between normal and improper function due to moisture in the refrigerant system.
(3) The A/C system does not function effectively due to insufficient cooling.
(4) The A/C system does not function effectively due to poor circulation of the refrigerant.
(5) The A/C system does not function intermittently because the refrigerant does not circulate.
(6) The A/C system does not function effectively due to overcharged refrigerant or insufficient cooling of the condenser.
(7) The A/C system does not function due to air in the refrigeration system.
CAUTION: The low-pressure piping may be very hot and cause serious burns. |
(8) The A/C system does not function effectively due to an expansion valve malfunction.
(9) The A/C system does not function due to a defective compressor.

Calibrating the compass
The direction display deviates from the true direction determined by
the earth’s magnetic field. The amount of deviation varies according to
the geographic position of the vehicle.
If you cross over a map boundary shown in illustration, the compass will
deviate.
