Why does my Toyota Sienna air conditioner keep cutting out?

This is a 2004 toyota Sienna with 150k miles. This problem could be a faulty air conditioner relay, Toyota’s are known for the points burning out on the relay that turns on the A/C clutch. Thank you, can you tell me where this is?

Is it normal for air conditioner compressor to cut out?

This is normal for the compressor to go off and on, depending on the temp. inside the cab. No, it’s not (normal). If the fan continues to run after the compressor cuts out and the temperature inside the cab is cool I would say there’s no issue. Maybe the ambiant temperature holds less humidity this time of year than in the summer where she lives.

Is it normal to lose R134a in air conditioning?

Adding to this is that it is normal to lose about 2 ounces of R134a out of an automotive system every year with no real leaks. So on the one hand the system could just be low enough to not function correctly after 4 years with no real problems or it can be low as a result of a leak. I wanted to point out some of the current issues we see.

Why does the a / C go out after 20 minutes?

Sometimes it will go out again after 20 minutes and sometimes it will work fine for an hour + ride. I had the A/C system evacuated and charged with Freon, It wasn’t low we recovered 1lb 2oz and put back in the same amount. Where do I go from here? What do you think it could be? Thanks for your time and have a great day. Neil have the same problem?

Why does my a / C stop blowing cold after 20 minutes?

It sounds like the compressor is supplying too much pressure and the metering orifice into the heat exchanger is freezing. Exactly when it stops working, pull over safely, pop the hood and find the aluminum bottle near the back of the engine compartment. It should be covered with condensation, but I’m guessing it’ll be iced over. helpful?

Why does my car a / C stop working after a few minutes?

Car A/C Stops Cooling or Working After a Few Minutes. The boiling point under vacuum is at a much lower temp, allowing the moisture to boil off and be sucked out of the system. Therefore, if the freezing up of the evaporator is caused by moisture in the system, an evacuate and recharge may fix the problem.

What happens to your body during the cutting phase?

During the cutting phase your going to have less energy because your restricting calories and to add to this most people restrict their carbohydrate intake just not Atkins style. Therefore if you’re overdoing HIIT your going to feel drained and overtraining is a possibility.

When does the a / C blow cold then hot?

The A/C blows cold for about 10 minutes after I start running it, then it goes hot. I already replaced the cycling switch, and topped off the freon. After I turn the ac off for a while then turn it back on and it blows cold again for a while then hot.

What should I do if my a / C does not work?

If it does not work, I turn off the truck, and wait a while, then start it again, it might work. Also, when the fan is working, the a/c starts out cold, and after a while it blows hot, then cold, then hot and pretty soon it just blows hot. It seems to stay cold longer when it is cool outside. When it is hot, it tends to get warm much sooner.

There are several possible causes of a vehicle’s air conditioning system to stop working after being on for only a few minutes. Basically the causes are either the A/C evaporator is getting too cold and icing up or there’s an electrical problem causing an open circuit. My Parents Chevy Had this Problem Long before I knew anything about A/C.
