Low High High
• Pressure for low
pressure side is high,
and high pressure
side is low.
• When the A/C
operation is stopped,
the pressures of low
pressure side and
high pressure side
immediately become
identical.
• Leakage inside
compressor
• Faulty
compression of
compressor
1. Check according to the
compressor check.
1. When no foreign object
is present to the oil, and
when the colour is light
grey, replace only the
compressor.
2. When foreign objects
are mixed to the oil, and
the colour is black,
replace the compressor
and receiver.
2. Perform the evacuation
sufficiently to remove the
foreign objects and
moisture in the cycle.
3. Fill the new gas to the
specified amount.
High High High
• Low pressure side/
high pressure side
pressure is too high.
• Low pressure side
piping is too hot to
touch.
• Air is mixed to
the refrigerant
cycle.
• Evacuation is
insufficient.
1. Perform the evacuation
sufficiently, and remove
the foreign objects and
moisture in the cycle.
2. Fill the new gas to the
specified amount.
Sufficient

During the air
conditioner operation,
the low pressure side
pressure alternates
between the negative
pressure and normal.
(also in the high
pressure side, the
abnormal and normal
statuses are alternated).
The moisture in
the refrigerant
cycle becomes
frozen in the
expansion valve,
then the
circulation of
refrigerant is
stopped
temporarily.
Subsequently, the
status recovers to
normal by the
melting of ice.
1. Replace the receiver
(drier).
2. Perform the evacuation
sufficiently, and remove
the moisture in the cycle.
3. Fill the new refrigerant to
the specified amount.

• The low pressure
side pressure
indicates the
vacuum, and the high
pressure side
indicates the low
pressure.
• To the piping before
and after the
expansion valve,
frost or dew is
observed.
• The foreign
objects or
moisture inside
the refrigerant
cycle deposits
or
freezes inside
the expansion
valve, and the
refrigerant flow
is disturbed.
• Because of the
expansion
valve operation
failure, the
refrigerant flow
is disturbed.
1. Check the expansion
valve.
1. If foreign objects are
present inside the
expansion valve,
remove them by using
an air gun or others.
2. When no foreign object
is present, the
expansion valve
operation failure is
suspected. Therefore,
replace the expansion
valve.
2. Perform the evacuation
sufficiently, and remove
the foreign objects and
moisture in the cycle.
3. Fill the new refrigerant to
the specified amount.

• Low pressure side/

pressure is low.
• Outlet air
temperature is high.
• Gas leakage is
present to
somewhere in
the refrigerant
cycle.
• Refrigerant gas
amount is
insufficient.
1. When the pressure gauge
indication is close to zero,
check the leak position,
and then repair the
leakage. Also, when the
value is lower than the
standard pressure, check if
the gas leakage is present,
and repair if necessary.
2. After checking the leak
position, sufficiently
perform the evacuation,
then fill the new gas to the
specified amount.

1. Clean the condenser fin

2. Check the condenser fan
motor (radiator fan)
operation.
3. When 1 and 2 are normal,
recover all the refrigerant.
Then, perform a sufficient
evacuation again, and fill
the new gas to the
specified amount.
High High High
• Low pressure side/

Because of the
slight difference of
measurement
environment,
secular change of
vehicle, or others,
it is possible that
the outlet
temperature
fluctuation has
occurred.
Check the status for a while,
and if the status does not
improve, recover all the
refrigerant, then fill to the
appropriate amount.
