9.5.4 Pilot Solenoid Valve
1. No maintenance is needed unless a
malfunction occurs.
2. A pilot solenoid valve replacement seal kit
is available: 871313.
9.5.5 Valve
Troubleshooting
PROBLEM PROCEDURE
Valve fails to close. 1. Check electrical supply with a voltmeter. It should agree with
nameplate rating.
2. Check pressure at pilot solenoid valve inlet. It must be at least
equal to the minimum pressure stamped on the nameplate. It
should not go below minimum while valve is operating.
1. Check that the closure member assembly, and that main actuator
and cylinder springs are free to travel.
2. Check that there is no restriction to the air escaping from the
actuator casing.
3. Make sure that pilot solenoid valve operates properly.
9.6 CENTRAL HOT WATER PNEUMATIC
VALVE ASSEMBLY
9.6.1 Description
The flow of hot water to the vehicle's central
heater core is controlled by a 3-way pneumatic
water valve assembly. The valve, located in the
evaporator compartment, is designed so that the
pilot solenoid valve, which is part of the
assembly, opens and closes a port which directs
air pressure to the actuator casing, thereby
allowing the hot water to enter the main heater
core or bypassing it.
When the vehicle is operating with no current to
the pilot solenoid valve, no air pressure is
admitted to the actuator casing, the cylinder
spring pushes up against the cylinder, thereby
allowing the hot water to enter the main heater
core.
The central heater water valve requires a
minimum amount of maintenance. The valve
should be free of dirt sediment that might
interfere with its operation. No other
maintenance is needed unless a malfunction
occurs.
9.6.2 Pneumatic Water Valve Disassembly
1. Shut off air supply pressure and electrical
current to the pilot solenoid valve.
Disconnect wires.
2. The water valve need not be removed from
the line. Unscrew nipple, the actuator
casing, tube, spindle and closure member
can be removed (Fig. 43).
3. Remove the snap ring using a pair of pliers.
