The return program involving V-5 air conditioning compressors terminated September 1, 1985. Some service compressors, however, still contain information regarding the return program. This return information should be disregarded.

When repairing the V-5 compressor, it is suggested that you use the diagnostics contained in the 1986 Service Manual. The 1986 diagnostics are improved over the 1985 Service Manual, but will also pertain to the 1985 model. It is suggested that a notation be made in your 1985 Service Manual to refer to the diagnostic charts on Pages 1B-7 thru 1B-10 of the 1986 Service Manual.

A number of compressors have been replaced that only have a defective control valve. An additional diagnostic procedure for evaluating inadequate system cooling due to the control valve follows:

A. Check for:

1. Blown A/C fuse and/or gauge fuse.

2. Loose or disconnected A/C wire connector.

3. Check blower for fan operation.

4. Engine cooling fan operation, fan operates in all A/C modes as follows:

a. Disconnect engine coolant temperature fan switch.
b. With ignition in on position and engine not running, set A/C control to A/C mode.
c. Engine cooling fan should run.
d. Reconnect engine coolant temperature fan switch.

B. Check that the compressor drive belt is not loose, missing or damaged, and that compressor is not seized.

C. With ambient temperature above 50~F (10~C), check for compressor clutch engagement as follows:

1. Engine running (approximately 1000 rpm) .

2. Set A/C control to "NORM" and "HIGH" blower.

3. Put auxiliary fan in front of vehicle.

4. Observe clutch operation for five minutes.

D. If clutch engages, but does not cycle, install high and low pressure gauges. If both gauges read within 10 psi of each other:

1. Discharge system.

2. Remove and replace compressor control valve.

3. Evacuate and charge system.

4. If problem persists, replace compressor pump assembly.
