It is going on a year and I have never had another single problem with my AC! It is still blowing cold every day. It was simply that the car could not communicate with the compressor, because the wiring harness was dirty.

More than likely that is normal, the exhaust cooling down, muffler, heat shields, and that pinging / etc sound is more than likely normal.

One more detail here. I bought two new tires like I had previously shared. The very next day after I put those new tires on, I had an occurrence of the traction control flashing. I went home and checked the tire pressure and they were both on 28 PSI. I filled them to 36 PSI and have not had a...

My traction light illuminating just about every day occasionally with the audible beep, beep, beep. Even tried to brake one wheel by itself occasionally while driving. I Read this thread and realized two of my tires were new with lots of tread (rear axle), and the other two were near...

Problem still fixed. Took the LX to Advance Auto Parts and both battery and alternator tested fine. So looks like it was the 3 prong wiring connector at the front top of the compressor that needed cleaning and that fixed the problem for me. it is 100 degrees F outside today and AC is working...

SOLUTION FOUND: My AC button started blinking on my 2002 LX 470, and when it started blinking, my compressor would shut off immediately! 🥵♨️🌶️ Upon start up the compressor would come on momentarily and then go off in about 5 seconds, the same moment the AC light would start blinking (my LX...

I had my alternator and battery tested at my local Advance Auto Parts store and they both tested fine, so that means that cleaning the wiring connector on the front of the compressor solved the problem. 👍 Happy trails and hope this helps someone down the road! Thats what this forum is so good...

I had the alternator and battery tested today at my local Advance Auto Parts and they both tested good, so it was the wiring harness at the front top of the compressor that fixed the problem. Hope this helps someone down the road, no pun intended :D

Found it in the 2003 model year FSM. Page DI-1074 Turn key on with AUTO and Recirculation buttons held down. Then you can toggle using the DEFROST button. The list of codes and their meanings are shown on page DI-1079. I will get LC back from shop today and I will start to look. Thank you.

Thank you for your quick response. Thank you for the suggestion of "holding recirculation and Auto buttons" and starting car. New concept for me. Shop says their Scanner says "no communication" with Ac system. I will get it back from the shop hopefully today and put my snap-on scanner on...

I am having the same problem with my 2002 LC AC light starts blinking on the display and the compressor shuts off. :deadhorse: For a while I could turn it off and then right back on and the compressor would come back on and all would be fine. Now the compressor will not stay on at all. I...

This is on my 1997 40th Anniversary Edition 80 Series I had this frustrating mystery noise as described in the title above and finally solved the mystery. It was in the dust deflector at the very front tip of the rear differential that had loosened up and was able to spin whenever the vehicle...

Audio was EXACTLY MY JINGLING noise. It was the rear differential dust cover/ cap. I believe it was pressed on originally, but had worked its way loose. Just put your hand on it and see if it spins, if so, there is your noise!!! I am trying to upload the video, but if I can't upload it, the...
