Overhaul
Inspection
1. Check the plated parts of the disc & hub assembly (A) for color changes, peeling or other damage. If there is damage, replace the clutch set.
2. Check the pulley (B) bearing play and drag by rotating the pulley by hand. Replace the clutch set with a new one if it is noisy or has excessive play/drag.
3. Check operation of the magnetic clutch.
Connect the compressor side terminals to the battery (+) terminal and the ground battery (-) terminal to the compressor body.
Check the magnetic clutch operating noise to determine the condition.
Disassembly
1. Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
2. Remove the front tire (A) from hub assembly.
Tightening torque :
10 - 15N.m (9 - 11kgf.m, 7.37 - 11lbf.ft)
3. Loosen the mounting bolts and then remove the under cover (A).
4. Loosen the mounting bolts and clip then remove the wheel house (A).
5. Remove the center bolt (A) while holding the disc & hub assembly with SST( 09977-3R000).
Tightening torque :
10.7 - 14.9N.m (1.1 - 1.52kgf.m, 7.9 - 10.9lbf.ft)
6. Loosen the mounting screws and then remove the disc & hub assembly (A).
Tightening torque :
4.9 - 6.9 N.m(0.5 - 0.71Kgf.m, 3.6 - 5.1 lb-ft)
7. Loosen the drive belt.
8. Disconnect the retainer ring (A) and then remove the pulley(B).
NOTE:
- Be careful not to damage the pulley (B) and compressor during removal/installation.
- Once retainer ring (A) is removed, replace it with a new one.
9. Reassemble the compressor clutch in the reverse order of disassembly, and note these items :
A. Clean the pulley and compressor sliding surfaces with non-petroleum solvent.
B. Install new retainer rings, and make sure they are fully seated in the groove.
C. Make sure that the pulley turns smoothly after its reassembled.
