Compressor Clutch: Service and Repair

Disassembly of Magnetic Clutch

1. REMOVE PRESSURE PLATE

(a) Using a SST and socket wrench, remove the shaft bolt. SST 07112-76060

(b) Install a SST on the pressure plate. SST 07112-66040

(d) Remove the shims from the pressure plate.

2. REMOVE ROTOR

(a) Using a SST, remove the snap ring. SST 07114-84020

(b) Using a plastic hammer, tap the rotor off the shaft.

NOTICE: Be careful not to damage the pulley when tapping on the rotor.

3. REMOVE STATOR

(a) Disconnect the stator lead wire from the compressor housing.

(b) Using a SST, remove the snap ring. SST 07114-84020

(a) Install the stator on the compressor.

(b) Using a SST, install the snap ring. SST 07114-84020

NOTICE: The snap ring should be installed so that its beveled side faces up.

2. INSTALL ROTOR
(a) Install the rotor on the compressor shaft.
(b) Using a SST, install the snap ring. SST 07114-84020

NOTICE: The snap ring should be installed so that its beveled side faces up.

3. INSTALL PRESSURE PLATE
(a) Put the shims to the pressure plate.

(b) Using SST and torque wrench, install the shaft bolt. SST 07112-76060

Torque: 14 N.m (140 kgf.cm, 10 ft.lbf)

4. CHECK CLEARANCE OF MAGNETIC CLUTCH
(a) Set the dial-gauge to the pressure plate of the magnetic clutch.
(b) Connect the magnetic clutch lead wire to the positive (+) terminal of the battery.
(c) Check the clearance between the pressure plate and rotor, when connect the negative (-) terminal of the battery.

Standard clearance: 0.5 ± 0.15 mm (0.020 ± 0.0059 in.)

If the clearance is not within standard clearance, adjust the clearance using shims to obtain the standard clearance.
