| Inspection |
| 1. |
Turn the ignition switch OFF.
|
| 2. |
Disconnect the evaporator temperature sensor connector.
|
| 3. |

| Diagnosis With GDS |
| 1. |
The heating, ventilation and air conditioning can be quickly diagnosed
failed parts with vehicle diagnostic system (GDS).
※ The diagnostic system (GDS) provides the following information.
(1) Self diagnosis : Checking the failure code (DTC) and display.
(2) Current data : Checking the system input/output data state.
(3) Actuation test : Checking the system operation condition.
(4) Additional function : Other controlling such as he system option
and zero point adjustment.
|
| 2. |
Select the 'Car model' and the system to be checked in order to check
the vehicle with the tester.
|
| 3. |
Select the 'Current data' menu to search the current state of the input
/ output data.
The input / output data for the sensors corresponding to the Evaporator
Temperature Sensor can be checked.
|
| Replacement |
| 1. |
Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
|
| 2. |
Remove the heater unit.
(Refer to Heater - "Heater Unit")
|
| 3. |
Separate the evaporator temperature sensor connector (A), loosen the
mounting screws and remove the evaporator core cover (B).
|
| 4. |
Pull out the evaporator core (A) from the heater unit.
|
| 5. |
Remove the evaporator temperature sensor (A).
|
| 6. |
To install, reverse the removal procedure.

Description The evaporator temperature sensor will detect the evaporator core temperature and interrupt compressor relay power in order to prevent evaporator from freezing by excessive cooling.
Description The In-car air temperature sensor is built in the heater & A/C control unit. The sensor contains a thermistor which measures the temperature of the inside.
Oil Specification 1. The HFC-134a system requires synthetic (PAG) compressor oil whereas the R-12 system requires mineral compressor oil. The two oils must never be mixed. 2. Compressor (PAG) oil varies according to compressor model.
