Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Help! A/C dont work

Coming home from the toyota dealership my a/c was working then i park it for a while go back to my car and feel its not turning cold at all, im a lil worried because im hopin its not anything big... anyone have any suggestions?

do you have warranty? if you do go back to the dealership and have them check it out

Well, you may have a leak on your condenser. If the leak can be sealed and then all you need is to recharge the cooling agent.

I had a piece of metal punched a hole on mine. It was beyond repair. Toyota wanted $1000 to install a new one. I just bought an aftermarket one and changed it myself. The unit cost $375.

Be sure to take it to a honest mechanic or dealership to get it recharge. Unfortunate for me, I took it into Glendale Toyota after I installed the new condenser. As it turned out, Glendale Toyota in CA is the shadiest dealership ever. They charged me $80 to recharge the cooling agent, then they had the nerves to tell me that my new condenser was leaking. And it would take $1000 to fix it. I gave them the finger and took it to a local mechanic. They recharged it and pressure-tested for $180. So, the whole thing cost me around $550, not counting the $80 those SOB at Glendale Toyota took from me.

oo ok thanks... I think my a/c aint getting no power because the fan aint spinning or anything... imma get it checked out tomorrow at a performance place... thanks for the post

You may just need a refill on coolant.

will that make the fan stop working or wat?
