Clutch Installation

INSTALLATION
1. Position A/C compressor clutch coil to A/C compressor in same position as removed.





2. Install three A/C compressor clutch coil screws.
Torque: 5 N.m (44 in-lbs)





3. Install A/C compressor clutch coil electrical connector screw.


IMPORTANT: Make sure A/C compressor clutch coil wire is routed as shown to prevent pinching of A/C compressor clutch coil wire.





4. Place thrust bearing and drive plate installer SA9149AC-3 on installation bolt and insert through center of pulley. Thread installation bolt into end of A/C compressor shaft and finger tighten.





5. Finger tighten nut on installation bolt to align pulley to A/C compressor. While holding end of bolt, tighten nut until pulley bottoms out on A/C compressor.
6. Loosen nut and remove pulley installation bolt.





7. Install snap ring with the tapered side out using snap ring pliers.





8. Place thrust bearing on installation bolt. Insert installation bolt through drive plate.
9. Install shims removed from old drive plate over end of installation bolt. Make sure to install the same number of shims that were removed.
10. Thread installation bolt into A/C compressor shaft.
11. While holding the end of the installation bolt, tighten nut to press drive plate onto A/C compressor shaft. Tighten until drive plate bottoms out.

IMPORTANT: Make sure A/C are engaged by rotating drive plate back-and-forth before tightening nut.

12. Loosen installation bolt nut and remove installation bolt.





13. Install clutch drive plate holder tool SA9510AC.
14. Install center bolt and tighten.
Torque: 13 N.m (115 in-Lbs)

IMPORTANT: After tightening the center bolt, check to make sure that the pulley rotates smoothly by spinning it.





15. Check to make sure clutch clearance is 0.5 mm-O.7 mm (0.018 in-0.030 in.)

16. If necessary, adjust clearance by adding shim(s) provided. Refer to steps 6 through 8 of Removal procedure to remove drive plate, then after installing shim(s), refer to steps 8 through 15 to install drive plate.
