Compressor Clutch: Testing and Inspection

MAGNETIC CLUTCH INSPECTION

Operation

1. Disconnect the magnetic clutch connector.




2. Connect battery positive voltage to terminal A and ground to terminal B of the magnetic clutch.




3. Verify that the magnetic clutch operates.
- If there is any malfunction, replace the stator.

Electric Current Value

NOTE: If 10 A A/C fuse is often burnt out, the cause may be short circuit in the stator coil. Perform the following inspection.

1. Disconnect the magnetic clutch connector.




2. Connect battery positive voltage and a tester to terminal A and ground to terminal B of the magnetic clutch as shown.




3. Verify the electric current value of the stator.
- If there is any malfunction, replace the stator.

Electric current value (approx. quantity)
2.9 A (Normal temperature)
MAX. 4.0 A or less
