LOW PRESSURE CYCLING CLUTCH SWITCH
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Unplug the wire harness connector from the
low pressure cycling clutch switch on the top of the
accumulator (Fig. 50).
(3) Unscrew the low pressure cycling clutch switch
from the fitting on the top of the accumulator.

special material for the R-134a system. Use only
refrigerant oil of the type recommended for the com-
pressor in the vehicle.

REFRIGERANT LINE COUPLER
WARNING: REVIEW THE WARNINGS AND CAU-
TIONS IN THE GENERAL INFORMATION SECTION
NEAR THE FRONT OF THIS GROUP BEFORE PER-
FORMING THE FOLLOWING OPERATION.
REMOVAL
(1) Recover the refrigerant from the refrigerant
system. See Refrigerant Recovery in the Service Pro-
cedures section of this group.
(2) Remove the secondary clip from the spring-lock
coupler.
(3) Fit the proper size A/C line disconnect tool
(Special Tool Kit 7193) over the spring-lock coupler
cage (Fig. 55).
(4) Close the two halves of the A/C line disconnect
tool around the spring-lock coupler.
(5) Push the A/C line disconnect tool into the open
side of the coupler cage to expand the garter spring.
Once the garter spring is expanded and while still
pushing the disconnect tool into the open side of the
coupler cage, pull on the refrigerant line attached to
the female half of the coupler fitting until the flange
on the female fitting is separated from the garter
spring and cage on the male fitting within the dis-
connect tool.
NOTE: The garter spring may not release if the A/C
line disconnect tool is cocked while pushing it into
the coupler cage opening.
(6) Open and remove the A/C line disconnect tool
from the disconnected spring-lock coupler.
(7) Complete the separation of the two halves of
the coupler fitting.
INSTALLATION
(1) Check to ensure that the garter spring is
located within the cage of the male coupler fitting,
and that the garter spring is not damaged.
(a) If the garter spring is missing, install a new
spring by pushing it into the coupler cage opening.
(b) If the garter spring is damaged, remove it
from the coupler cage with a small wire hook (DO
NOT use a screwdriver) and install a new garter
spring.
(2) Clean any dirt or foreign material from both
halves of the coupler fitting.
(3) Install new O-rings on the male half of the cou-
pler fitting.
CAUTION: Use only the specified O-rings as they
are made of a special material for the R-134a sys-
tem. The use of any other O-rings may allow the
connection to leak intermittently during vehicle
operation.
(4) Lubricate the male fitting and O-rings, and the
inside of the female fitting with clean R-134a refrig-
erant oil. Use only refrigerant oil of the type recom-
mended for the compressor in the vehicle.
(5) Fit the female half of the coupler fitting over
the male half of the fitting.
(6) Push together firmly on the two halves of the
coupler fitting until the garter spring in the cage on
the male half of the fitting snaps over the flanged
end on the female half of the fitting.
(7) Ensure that the spring-lock coupler is fully
engaged by trying to separate the two coupler halves.
This is done by pulling the refrigerant lines on either
side of the coupler away from each other.
(8) Reinstall the secondary clip over the spring-
lock coupler cage.
SUCTION AND DISCHARGE LINE
Any kinks or sharp bends in the refrigerant plumb-
ing will reduce the capacity of the entire air condi-
tioning system. Kinks and sharp bends reduce the
flow of refrigerant in the system. A good rule for the
flexible hose refrigerant lines is to keep the radius of
all bends at least ten times the diameter of the hose.
