A/C Problems

[Lambous]

Hi there, i do have a Toyota IQ Auto 09 and firstly the issue was the cooling aspect of the a/c since one day just stopped to cooling but the fans and heating were working.Then i have proceeded in an appointment with a garage.At first they told me that when you press the button for A/C  it doesn’t send signal to the compressor to spin.After two days of trials in suspected issues they didn’t reach into a conclusion so i decided to take it to toyota.But then i realised that they did something wrong and mess up the display panel.Sometimes it works for a some time and then goes dead.So apart the issue of cooling,now i have the issue with the display panel.Toyota thinks that about the display panel the issue it is the A/c amplifier. Any thoughts or recommendations?

Hi, check out the IQ Aircon post by bug 23rd June 2017 it has some great info provided by Solely and may help.

I also have problems with Aircon and sent for a regas kit from Amazon as I cannot see any evidence of gas or bubbles through the inspection window.

However will work through the faulting as suggested on the previous post originated by bug.

Yes I may have a leak ! However I'm interested in trying the kit.supplied by Aircon top-up.com.

A can of leak stopper, a can of gas and a gauge.

Wish me luck!

Update.

DIY AC top up , easy to use as directed on website video, if a bit of stretch.

Access from the wheel arch drivers side to AC low port to connect top up cable and gauge.

Hi there. I do need your help which i do believe will save me for a mass amount of money. My air con amp has issues and does not allow to the air condition to work properly. I spoke with toyota and to replace the existing one with a new one will cost me around 500 euros. I saw many used amps in the eBay but not with the same code with mine. so my question is whether another amplifier matching mine without having the same code. My IQ has a date of 01/09 automatic and the amplifier code is 88650-74030.Thank you!
