Installation
AIR CONDITIONING: COMPRESSOR AND MAGNETIC CLUTCH (for 3UR-FE):
INSTALLATION
1. ADJUST COMPRESSOR OIL
(a) When replacing the compressor and magnetic clutch with a new one, gradually discharge the refrigerant gas from the service valve, and drain the following amount of oil from the new compressor and magnetic clutch before installation.
Standard:
(Oil capacity inside the new compressor and magnetic clutch: 120 + 15 cc (4.1 + 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)
NOTICE:
- When checking the compressor oil level, follow the A/C system's precautions.
- If a new compressor and magnetic clutch 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 compressor and magnetic clutch is too small, check for oil leakage.
- Be sure to use ND-OIL 8 or equivalent for compressor oil.
2. INSTALL COOLER COMPRESSOR ASSEMBLY
(a) Install the cooler compressor and 2 stud bolts.
Torque: 10 Nm (102 kgf-cm, 7 ft-lbf)
(b) Install the 2 bolts and 2 nuts.
Torque: 24.5 Nm (250 kgf-cm, 18 ft-lbf)
HINT: Tighten the bolts and nuts in the order shown in the illustration to install the cooler compressor.
(c) Connect the connector.
3. CONNECT SUCTION HOSE
(a) Remove the attached vinyl tape from the cooler refrigerant suction hose.
(b) Sufficiently apply compressor oil to a new O-ring and the fitting surface of the cooler compressor.
Compressor oil:
ND-OIL 8 or equivalent
(c) Install the O-ring on the cooler refrigerant suction hose.
(d) Connect the cooler refrigerant suction hose on the cooler compressor with the bolt.
Torque: 9.8 Nm (100 kgf-cm, 87 in-lbf)
4. CONNECT DISCHARGE HOSE
(a) Remove the attached vinyl tape from the cooler refrigerant discharge hose.
(b) Sufficiently apply compressor oil to a new O-ring and the fitting surface of the cooler compressor.
Compressor oil:
ND-OIL 8 or equivalent
(c) Install the O-ring on the cooler refrigerant discharge hose.
(d) Connect the cooler refrigerant discharge hose on the cooler compressor with the bolt.
Torque: 9.8 Nm (100 kgf-cm, 87 in-lbf)
5. INSTALL FAN AND GENERATOR V BELT (Installation)
6. INSTALL FENDER APRON MUDGUARD SEAL LH
(a) Install the seal with the 6 clips.
7. CHARGE REFRIGERANT (Service and Repair)
8. WARM UP ENGINE (Service and Repair)
9. CHECK FOR REFRIGERANT GAS LEAK (Service and Repair)
