86.5 supra ac doesnt work

SupaDupa · 10-19-2006, 11:23 PM

ok, i've searched with all the keywords but nothing shows up.
im looking to see if theres a write up on how to replace the ac system (compressor, lines etc). i just ordered the repair manual but would like to see if anyone has done this.

not sure exactly what needs to be fixed, the panel lights up and moves the vent from open to close but no air is pushed. what should i start with first? a fuse? a line? i know this is extrememly hence why i am looking for a write up.

any help will be appreciated
thanks!

If it's not moving any air it may be as simple as a bad climate control unit. But it's most likely the blower motor. It's behind the glove box. It's a bitch to get to. Take it to an A/C place and have them diagnose the problem and go from there.

does your fan blow if not check under p/s kick pannel and see if the braker has kicked

does the system have pressure? if not your gonna need to redo the whole A/C system

the old stuff was r12 and the new stuff is R134a wich dont mix

and r12 is very very very hard to get your hands on since they stopped making it back in the 90's. if ya gotta redo it your gonna need a new compressor evaporator lines and condensor if not even more
