ac

I have been studying the schematics in the FSM and I am at my wits end trying to figure out my AC issue. Can someone in the know help me cut to the chase and explain to me how things flow upstream from the AC Compressor. I know I found a thread that mentioned this previously after hours of...

Whats the easiest and safest way to remove the AC vents? Would like to get mine cleaned and painted black. I turned them inwards 90deg and tried to gently pull them out, but didn't want to take a chance and then break the dash face, so stopped. I am sure a little more pull and they'd pop...

Im having issues with my 07 lx470 AC. took it to lexus and they diagnosed as rear evaporator failing. I can source a new denso evap for 170 bucks. If it was your truck who would you take it to? If any of y'all want a crack at it, I'm happy to turn wrenches with/ buy beer. Thanks!

So late one night this past weekend during the big storms here in the South East, I wake up to my car horn just on full blast blaring, I get out to the cae and start pulling the connecting wires to all my horns and the far passenger side one was smoking and seemed like it was causing all the...

Sooooo, I took my truck to lexus a couple of months ago and they diagnosed my truck needing a new rear AC condenser. $1k from them to replace. talked to my local mechanic, and he quoted me the same price. couple of questions... 1- how rare is this failure? 2- do I really need rear AC...

I Purchased by BJ73 with no AC compressor, sourced one today and installed it but was a bit baffled because there was no where to plug it in... the single wire to the clutch to activate it. Looking at the wiring diagram below this is what i am looking for, i think. I believe i have the VSV...

Looking for brackets and crank pulley to add AC to a non-AC 12HT/2H. Seeking the gray shaded parts in photo attached. Willing to pay a premium to find what I'm looking for. Thank you for reading.

this may be a dumb question but apparently there are none. every other car i own has AC as a button - on or off but a 70 series has the dial, my FSM calls it a temp. control resistor. does this mean it varies how much work the AC compressor does somehow? i would really like to know

My AC gets nice and cold but when I go to defrost mode with AC on, the temp with get less cold but not hot when I turn the slider bar to hot. Also heater does not get super hot in from vs. heater in the rear. 93' 80 Thoughts? Thanks

Mudders, I've had a few ask, so I think it warrants its own post - I assume more might have had/have this issue. Maybe this could end up in the FAQ, if enough people post solutions to HVAC problems (with pictures!). PROBLEM: Temperature control for HVAC does not work. Cold is cold, 65 and...

looked around, but not much on this. Have any of you hard-wired a powerful inverter? I was looking at a 2000W unit, and wondering if there is any problem running this with my dual battery system going in on Monday. Upper limit? Car Running only or no? Any thoughts? It would be nice to be...

I have done a search and read every AC thread I could find. I have a 2000 LC with a very small leak...so small that 2 so called AC experts have done a pressure test and said it is fine. It's not fine. After 2-3 weeks the 134a is leaking out to the point that the car will no longer cool - I live...

My A/C compressor has been making a horrible noise lately, well it's what a compressor sounds like on cheaper cars. It's a ticking sound that is completely noticeable from inside the car when the radio is off and it started when the high and low pressure lines were removed and rebuilt. Anyone...

I had my evaporator fail on me yesterday, It had a very small leak that caused the freon to leak out over a two month period of time. Has anyone had this problem before?

I'm looking for a set of AC lines that run in front of the radiator to the collector that sits in front of the radiator. Mine were damaged by the PO in an accident. Much appreciated! -Huerta

Hi all, Just resealed and rebuilt my AC compressor (Denso 10PA series) in my 1996 FZJ80, as well as replaced my expansion valve and every o-ring I could get my hands on. Mechanic who recharged system said it held pressure for an hour (!) and was perfect as far as he could tell. Even with a...

I have an on-board air system for a 1HZ that mounts where the AC compressor goes. Has anyone seen other factory-type mounting system location for an AC compressor? I want to retain the AC. I may try to piggyback them but the air-box is in the way and would prefer to keep the factory look. Has...

UPDATE 1/22/15** ISSUE RESOLVED FOR NOW. SOLUTION ON PAGE 2 Figured I should start my own thread here regarding the issue I am having vs continuing to hijack old threads. Little back story. Recently picked up a new to me 97 CE. Upon driving it originally AC worked great as well as heater...
