–
| Measure distance between poly V-belt pulley -2- and clutch plate -3- with a depth gauge -1- and note measurement. |
Perform three measurements at different locations offset by 120°. The measurements must not deviate. |
Determining measurement “2” |
–
| Separate connector -4- on air conditioner compressor. |
–
| Attach connector -4- to positive terminal of vehicle battery using an auxiliary cable. |
–
| Switch on ignition and air conditioning system (blower speed 1). Magnetic clutch must close. |
–
| Measure distance between poly V-belt pulley -2- and clutch plate -3- with a depth gauge -1- and note measurement. Measure at the same locations as for dimension “1”. |
The clearance is the difference between measurement “1” and measurement “2”. |
Note t
| The clearance must lie within permitted tolerances over the complete circumference. |
t
| The clearance can also be measured when the air conditioner compressor is installed. |
t
| If the clearance is outside the permitted range, remove the clutch plate and adjust the clearance by removing or adding spacers. |
