Howdy guys!
I just picked up my first ever toyota.
I’ve always admired the 90s era rigs up here in NorCal (sac area) and this LC fell into my lap at the unbeatable price of 200 bucks.
My main problem is a starting issue.
after purchasing the LC I drove it to work, started and ran fine.
came out, and battery is dead.
co worked jumped me, went home fine.
had the AC on and it was surging pretty bad. Parked it for the night, next day no start like battery is dead again.
checked battery, has normal voltage disconnected from LC checked again the following morning And same~15 volts
Jumped the LC with my truck, runs great at idle, unhooked my truck, still idling great, then dies when I put the AC on, I tried all the other lights and stuff only the AC kills it.
My conclusion is that if my battery is good, my LC idles fine off itself then the alt is ok too, and it starts perfectly fine every time I jump it so it’s not my starter either and the ac works great no surging when my truck is connected still. After some reading on here it looks like I’ve narrowed it down to the fusible link, efi fuse, or something AC related.
Thanks in advance.
