Components

Removal

1. Remove compressor and magnetic clutch

HINT: (See page AC-227 )

2. REMOVE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR

(a) Disconnect the crankshaft position sensor connector.

(b) Remove the bolt, and then remove the crankshaft position sensor.

INSPECTION

1. INSPECT CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR

(a) Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between the terminals.

Standard resistance

• "Cold" and "Hot" mean the temperature of the coils themselves.
• "Cold" is from -10°C (14°F) to 50 °C and "Hot" is from 50 °C to 100 °C.

If the resistance is not as specified, replace the crankshaft position sensor.

INSTALLATION

1. INSTALL CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR

(a) Apply a light coat of engine oil to the O-ring on the crankshaft position sensor.

(b) Install the crankshaft position sensor with the bolt.

Torque: 9.0 N*m (92 kgf*cm, 80 in.*lbf) (c) Connect the crankshaft position sensor connector.

2. INSTALL COMPRESSOR AND MAGNETIC CLUTCH
