| Inspection |
| 1. |
Ignition "OFF". |
| 2. |
Disconnect the intake actuator connector. |
| 3. |
Verify that the actuator operates to the recirculation position when connecting 12V to the terminal 3 and grounding terminal 7. |
| 4. |
Verify that the intake actuator operates to the fresh position when connecting in the reverse.
|
| 5. |
Check the voltage between terminals 5 and 6.
Specification
|
| 6. |
If the intake actuator is not operated well, substitute with a known-good intake actuator and check for proper operation. |
| 7. |
If the problem is corrected, replace the intake actuator. |
| Replacement |
| 1. |
Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal. |
| 2. |

Description 1. The intake actuator is located at the blower unit. 2. It regulates the intake door by signal from control unit. 3. Pressing the intake selection switch will shift between recirculation and fresh air modes.
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. Be sure to use oil specified for the model of compressor.
Inspection 1. Check the condenser fins for clogging and damage. If clogged, clean them with water, and blow them with compressed air. If bent, gently bend them using a screwdriver or pliers. 2. Check the condenser connections for leakage, and repair or replace it, if required.
