AC-15
General Description
HVAC SYSTEM (HEATER, VENTILATOR AND A/C)
Refrigerant recovery system
A
REFRIGERANT RECOVERY SYSTEM is used for the recovery and
recycling of A/C system refrigerant after contaminants and moisture
have been removed from the refrigerant.
Syringe
A graduated plastic
SYRINGE will be needed to add oil into the system
again. A syringe can be available at a pharmacy or drug store.
Vacuum pump
A
VACUUM PUMP is necessary (for a good working condition), and
may be available at either a refrigerant supplier or an automotive
equipment supplier.
Can tap
A
CAN TAP for the 397 g (14 oz) can is available at an automotive
equipment supplier.
Thermometer
A Pocket
THERMOMETER is available at either a industrial hardware
store or a refrigerant supplier.

Refrigerant Pressure with Manifold Gauge Set
HVAC SYSTEM (HEATER, VENTILATOR AND A/C)
3. Refrigerant Pressure with Manifold Gauge Set
A: PROCEDURE
1) Place the vehicle in the shade and windless condition.
2) Open the front hood.
3) Connect the manifold gauge set.
4) Open the front windows and close all doors.
5) Increase the engine to 1,500 rpm.
6) Turn the A/C switch to ON.
7) Turn the temperature control dial to MAX COOL position.
8) Turn the FRESH/RECIRC switch to RECIRC position.
9) Turn the fan speed control dial to HI (MAX) position.
10) Read the gauge.
Specification:
Low pressure: 127 — 196 kPa (1.3 — 2.0 kg/cm
2
, 18 — 28 psi)
High pressure: 1,471 — 1,667 kPa (15 — 17 kg/cm
2
, 213 — 242 psi)
Ambient temperature: 30 — 35°C (86 — 95°F)
B: INSPECTION
Symptoms
Probable cause
Repair order
High-pressure side is unusually high.
• Defective condenser fan motor
• Clogged condenser fin
• Too much refrigerant
• Air inside the system
• Defective receiver dryer (condenser)
• Replace the fan motor.
• Clean the condenser fin.
• Discharge refrigerant.
• Replace the condenser.
• After evacuating again, charge an
appropriate amount of refrigerant.
High-pressure side is unusually low.
• Defective compressor
• Not enough refrigerant
• Clogged expansion valve
• Expansion valve frozen temporarily by
moisture.
• Replace the compressor.
• Check for leaks.
• Replace the expansion valve.
• Fully evacuate the expansion valve.
