Hey folks,

My A/C wasn't working so I took it to my mechanic to see what the problem was. He found out that there were some holes and so the gas was leaking. So he fixed it all up and said it should be fine...indeed it was working great until a month later. All of a sudden my A/C stopped working and I'm not sure if I did something to wreck it or if it wasn't fixed properly. Is this a problem owners of older lexus experience?I would greatly appreciate if you have any advice or suggestions for me. Thanks....by the way, it blows air but not cold A/C air.

 

if it doesnt even blow air then its a 99% chance that the compressor is fried.

 

sorry, it blows air for sure...it's just not A/C air.

 

i have a 92 LS400 too had the same problem lexus wanted over $1200 to fix... took it to one of those family auto shop with the crappy commcerials......~$275, the seal were the coolant is, is next to the exshaust and melts it.... that was the problem with mine should be the same with yours.

hope this helps

 

thanks for your fast reply. it helps me alot. i'll let my mechanic know about this and hopefully it will work again.

thanks again to all those that replied.

O-rings aren't to replace at all, I resealed my own AC a few years back and it still works great i also retrofitted it to R-134a at the same time.
