Determine "Dimension 2"
-
If compressor is installed in vehicle, disconnect compressor electrical connector -4- from vehicle wiring harness.
-
Using a jumper wire, energize the clutch coil by applying 12 V to connector -A- (battery terminal B+). If compressor is removed from vehicle,
compressor must be grounded.
-
With clutch energized, measure gap between pulley -2- and clutch plate -3- with depth gauge -1-.
-
The allowable gap (0.4 - 0.8 mm / 0.015 - 0.023 in) is the difference between "Dimension 1" and "Dimension 2".
NOTE:
-
Gap must be within tolerance around entire circumference.
-
If gap is outside the permitted tolerance range, remove clutch plate and adjust gap by adding or removing shims, key -3-.
