Review General Information Safety Precautions before proceeding with this operation. This test requires the use of a Manifold Gauge Set.
Test must be conducted at a minimum ambient temperature of 21°C (70°F).
a. Connect a manifold gauge set to the compressor discharge port.
b. Set the A/C controls to Panel or A/C and High blower, operate the engine at 1300 rpm.
