On-vehicle inspection

  1. Inspect cooler condenser assembly

  1. If the fins of the cooler condenser are dirty, clean them with water. Dry the fins with compressed air.

Notice:

Do not damage the fins of the condenser.

  1. If a fin of the cooler condenser is bent, straighten it using a screwdriver or pliers.
  1. Check condenser for leakage of refrigerant

  1. Using a halogen leak detector, check the pipe joints for gas leakage.
  2. If gas leakage is detected in a joint, check the torque of the joint.

Removal

  1. Discharge refrigerant from refrigeration system (see page ac-172)

  2. Disconnect cable from negative battery terminal

Caution:

Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to prevent airbag and seat belt pretensioner activation.

  1. Remove front bumper cover
