Air Conditioning

My A/C is playing up, and with the humidity in Brisbane at present, it is not nice to be driving without air going. I am going on holidays next weeekend and want it to be working.

Checked out the gas in it last night and the mobile auto electican topped up the gas, and it worked well well sitting in the shed! The air is crisp and cold, so I know the system is working.

Cruised off to work this morning but it seems that when the motor gets warm, there must be some sensor or something that is turning the system off. A/C light flashes, and if I turn it off ans on again, it will occasionally work again for a while, then turn itself off and the light will flash again.

So the pump, when working, is pumping cold air, but is there a sensor or something that could be causign the intermittent operation?

Has anyone had any similar problem before?

Sounds like a trip to Toyota might help? Definiently a sensor or something playing up.

sounds like the system is over gassed

there is a high pressure sensor that if the pressure gets too great it will shut the system down and make the ac light flash.

take it to a toyota dealer or someone that is really switchedon with ac systems
