1: This step determines if the A/C system has at least the minimum refrigerant charge
required to operate the system without damage.
2: This step measures the performance of the A/C system.
3: This step is to allow for vehicle variations as well as high ambient air temperatures.

Values
Yes
No
IMPORTANT:
The ambient air temperature must be at least 16°C ( 60°F).
Do not induce additional air flow across the front of the vehicle during the test.
If you were sent here from a DTC diagnostic table, clear the DTC upon completion of this test.

1. Park the vehicle inside or in the
shade.
2. Open the windows in order to
ventilate the interior of the vehicle.
3. If the A/C system was operating,
allow the A/C system to equalize for
about 2 minutes.
4. Turn OFF the ignition.
5. Install the J 43600 ACR 2000
Refrigerant Station. See Special
Tools.
6. Record the ambient air temperature
displayed on the J 43600 . See
Special Tools.
7. Record the low and high side
STATIC pressure readings.
Are both the low and high side pressures
within the specified value?

The IP panel outlet mode
All IP panel outlets are OPEN
Recirculation mode
4. Install the temperature probes to the
J 43600 in the left and right center
air outlets. See Special Tools.
5. Apply the parking brake.
6. Place the transaxle/transmission in
one of the following positions:
PARK for Automatic
NEUTRAL for Manual
7. Start the engine.
8. Operate the A/C system for 5
minutes.
9. Inspect A/C components for the
following conditions:
