DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION AND PROCEDURES

DIAGNOSTIC STARTING POINT - HEATING, VENTILATION AND AIR CONDITIONING

The Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system is divided into two sections. The first, Heating,
Ventilation and Air Conditioning, it has all of the replacement procedures that pertain to the HVAC components
or functions that are associated with an automatic control system. The second, HVAC Systems-Automatic, has
all of the diagnostic procedures specific to the automatic control system.

For systems with DTCs, begin the system diagnosis with the following procedures: Diagnostic System Check -
HVAC Systems - Automatic in HVAC Systems-Automatic

The Diagnostic System Check will provide the following information:

z

The identification of the control modules which command the system.

z

The ability of the control modules to communicate through the class 2 serial data circuit.

The use of the Diagnostic System Check will identify and lead the technician to the correct diagnostic
procedure.

Review the Description and Operation information to help you determine the correct symptom diagnostic
procedure when a malfunction exists. Reviewing the Description and Operation information will also help you
determine if the condition described by the customer is normal operation. The HVAC Description and
Operation information is divided into:

LEAK TESTING

Tools Required

z

J 39400-A Halogen Leak Detector. See Special Tools and Equipment .

z

J 41447 R-134a A/C Tracer Dye - Box of 24. See Special Tools and Equipment .

z

J 42220 Universal 12V Leak Detection Lamp. See Special Tools and Equipment .

z

J 43872 Fluorescent Dye Cleaner. See Special Tools and Equipment .

z

J 46297 A/C Dye Injector Kit. See Special Tools and Equipment .

z

J 46297-12 Replacement Dye Cartridges. See Special Tools and Equipment .

Refrigerant Leak Testing

The fluorescent dye mixes and flows with the polyalkylene glycel (PAG) oil throughout the refrigerant system.

Verifying some passive leaks may require using the J 39400-A , even though the A/C system contains
fluorescent dye. See Special Tools and Equipment .

The only time that adding additional fluorescent dye is required is after flushing the A/C system.

IMPORTANT: General Motors vehicles are now manufactured with fluorescent dye installed

directly into the air conditioning (A/C) system.

Fluorescent Leak Detector

Fluorescent dye will assist in locating any leaks in the A/C system.

z

Condensation on the evaporator core or the refrigerant lines may wash the PAG oil and fluorescent dye
away from the actual leak. Condensation may also carry dye through the HVAC module drain.

z

Leaks in the A/C system will be indicated in a light green or yellow color when using the leak detection
lamp.

Use the leak detection lamp in the following areas:

{

All fittings or connections that use seal washers or O-rings

{

All of the A/C components

{

The A/C compressor shaft seal

{

The A/C hoses and pressure switches

{

The HVAC module drain tube, if the evaporator core is suspected of leaking

{

The service port sealing caps

The sealing cap is the primary seal for the service ports.

z

Follow the instructions supplied with the J 42220 . See Special Tools and Equipment .

z

To prevent false diagnosis in the future, thoroughly clean the residual dye from any area where leaks were
found. Use a rag and the approved fluorescent dye cleaner J 43872 . See Special Tools and Equipment .

Fluorescent Dye Injection

z

Not all of the fluorescent dyes are compatible with PAG oil.

Some types of dye decrease the oil viscosity or may chemically react with the oil.

z

R-134a leak detection dye requires time to work. Depending upon the leak rate, a leak may not become
visible for between 15 minutes and 7 days.

IMPORTANT: PAG oil is water soluble.

IMPORTANT: Use only fluorescent dye approved by General Motors.

z

J 41447 can be poured directly into a removed A/C component. See
Special Tools and Equipment .

z

J 46297-12 is injected into the low side port using J 46297 . See
Special Tools and Equipment .

IMPORTANT: Do NOT overcharge the A/C system with dye. Use only one 7.39 ml (0.25

oz) charge.
