my ac went out a couple weeks ago it was working fine then all the sudden the ac button wouldn't turn on and my compressor doesn't turn on either. i changed the 10 watt fuze behind the glove box it was blown but still that didn't solve the problem i checked all the wiring and it seems fine so idk wat to do btw im still running r12 on my yota. any help will be apreciated
It's been forever sense I've seen air on a 22r but there maybe a chance your clutch on your compressor has fried and is not engaging the compressor . Sense u mentioned it won't kick on and in does have freon? .is there a low pressure switch on this system can't remember could try jumping that and see if the compressor comes on
Well it's been along time but if u can find the two power wires running of the compressor put them directly to the battery and see if the compressor clutch engages heavy clicking sound . This might be one way to isolate the wiring in the dash and elsewhere just buy bypassing all of it . And see if u can get power to the compressor directly from the battery ...like I said it been like 7 years sense I've seen ac so I'm rusty with the schematics of it ..
true. "easy" way to determine if clutch problem or wiring problem. but BE CAREFUL!! - when powering the wire, only "tap" it to battery "+" , if u leave it on for more than 1-2 sec, u could run the risk of frying the system. if the clutch kicks on= wiring/power issue. if not, most likely clutch is fried. but double check everything. dont forget the "mag clutch" relay. if u can swap it with a known good one, its one step closer.
i jumped started the compressor today and it did click i check all the fues there ok to the wires are good to so idk wat else it could be
