    A/C Compressor not cycling

    Sorry for the late response, been real busy recently so haven't gotten much work done on the 80. Ended up replacing expansion valve and recharging. After driving around and then hooking up gauges, low side read 30 and high side 210 at idle with ambient temp at condenser of around 85 degrees...

    A/C Compressor not cycling

    I replaced all the items because the clutch was for sure broken on the compressor so I assumed complete failure. Prior to installing all new parts, I did flush out all the lines and the evaporator. I did make a mistake in the process of flushing. I installed the new TXV and then flushed...

    A/C Compressor not cycling

    What would be examples of restrictions? Fan clutch is brand new. Condenser and radiator are brand new. Heater valve is fully shut. I'm thinking possibly evaporator not doing it's job?

    A/C Compressor not cycling

    lol I live in Florida so that could be a possibility but the fact it's not blowing very cold leads me to believe something i malfunctioning. My 92' 80 Series blows ice cold and will cycle on the hottest of days in Florida.

    A/C Compressor not cycling

    So in your Odyssey, the air was blowing semi-cold but no cycling from compressor and this was issue that resolved it?

    A/C Compressor not cycling

    1995 FZJ80 Recently replaced most of the A/C system. Installed new compressor, condenser, dryer, expansion valve, pressure switch. Using vacuum pump, removed moisture and added freon with manifold gauges. Low side pressure was around 25 and high side pressure 275ish (maybe a little higher) with...

    VGRS light

    My LX470 has the VGRS, VSC OFF, and VSC TRAC lights on. They are steady and remain on all the time while driving. Took it to Toyota to get diagnosed and the codes pulled were ABS: C1289, C1291, C1340 VGRS: C1554, C1568 AHC: 1777. I was told these are all related to the VGRS going bad except for...

    Fuel Gauge/Sender Issue

    I have a 92' 3FE LC. Recently I replaced my fuel sender with another used unit that was known to be in good working order because my gauge needle was jumping/dancing and not marking correctly. The needle shows a fairly accurate depiction when I accelerate and then I let go of gas pedal, the...

    Recharging AC Help!

    So that indeed was the issue. To solve my problem I had to use the r12 fitting to fill the freon from the low side. Found an old r12 gauge set I had lying around and bought some brass pipe fitting to adapt the r12 low side hose to the r134 gauge. I then proceeded to fill 2 12 ounce cans (first...

    Recharging AC Help!

    So I think I found the issue. The r134 adapter to the service port is not pushing in the original r12 Schrader valve in deep enough. To test this, I took the top cover off the compressor which houses both the high side and low side service ports. I then attached the gauge hoses to the service...

    Recharging AC Help!

    Low side pressure was around 105-110 and high side pressure was just under 150. The ambient temperature outside was 80F.

    Recharging AC Help!

    Ok, so I did as you instructed. Filled high side with one entire can with vehicle off (liquid fill) and attempted to fill low side (with vehicle on), but compressor would not take the r134. I shook the can (not upside down) for about 50 minutes before I stopped because I felt I was making no...

    Recharging AC Help!

    Ok, I have done this to a tee EXCEPT I open the low side fully when I do it, thus getting those high pressure numbers (80-120) on the low side you mentioned. I will reattempt all steps again as you've described and get back with the readings.

    Recharging AC Help!

    Correct, the evaporator was not replaced. Also, correct in that I flushed the remaining lines and evaporator. I did so by using one of the pressurized ac flush kits with Johnsen's Flush solvent and just blowing the solvent through the lines/evaporator. I added a total of a little over 7 ounces...

    Recharging AC Help!

    Brian, Did as you instructed and the system took the whole can on the high side in a few minutes. Turned the land cruiser on and started trying to fill the low side. Pressure was around 130 and wasn't taking freon. Clutch was engaged as soon as I turned the A/C on. I then stopped trying to add...
