Hi Em,

Go and have a look at my site SoarerTT , in the Electrical section there is a list of A/C error codes.

The A/C light blinks when the A/C control unit detects any fault on the system (including a stuffed compressor), run the diagnostics and see if you have any codes stored.

Later,

Bill.

Hi.

I now own two SC300's (installing a Supra twin turbo in one). Anyway, the most recent one I bought was a 5speed (really wanted a 5speed one) and the AC does not work. The AC switch is on, but I couldn't tell if the light actually flashed or anything (what would it mean if it did). Also, with the AC switch on (an AC shown on the screen), the clutch on the compressor isn't engaged. I'm thinking the compressor is frozen because when you first switch in the AC, you here the car "bog" for a split second (or two) as if it TRIED to come on, but it doesn't. The relay must disengage the clutch when it detects no rpm-signal. Nevertheless, I'd like to start with the cheapest thing first. So, where exactly is this AC relay located? Is it on the compressor itself or someplace else in the engine bay?

Thanks,

Nicholas

I just saw this thread but for future reference, you can also try Coliseum Lexus if it is a dealer you want. Ask for Mark Owen. I've dealt with him since his days at Serramonte. He also took with him to Coliseum the top tech that was at Serramonte.
