S5JB0A7206017
Removal
1) Recover refrigerant from the A/C system with
recovery and recycling equipment referring to
“Recovery” in “Operation Procedure for Charging A/
C with Refrigerant”.
2) Loosen a bolt (1) and remove pipes from expansion
valve (2).
3) Loosen bolts (3) and remove expansion valve.
Installation
1) Reverse removal nothing the following instructions.
• Apply compressor oil to O-ring of expansion valve
and pipes.
2) Evacuate and charge system according to
“Operation Procedure for Charging A/C with
Refrigerant”.
A/C Refrigerant Pressure Sensor and Its Circuit
Inspection
S5JB0A7206051
1) Disconnect A/C refrigerant pressure sensor
connector.
2) Turn ignition switch to ON position.
3) Check if voltage between “GRY/RED” wire terminal
and “GRY/GRN” wire terminal of A/C refrigerant
pressure sensor connector is 4.75 V to 5.25 V.
If not, check A/C refrigerant pressure sensor circuit.
4) Connect A/C refrigerant pressure sensor connector
with ignition switch turned OFF.
5) Connect manifold gauge set to the charging valves.
6) Check A/C refrigerant pressure sensor voltage of
ECM connector referring to “A/C System Inspection
at ECM”.
If voltage is not as specified below, replace A/C
refrigerant pressure sensor.
