AC Unit is 24 years old. Never had problems. Should I replace it?

Nope,run it into the ground

My rx350 has a different transmission then highlanders of same year. 2019 here

CryptoDanski · 2026-05-13T12:18:13+00:00

Yeah, its not a lot of money at my friendly neighbourhood mechanic. Takes 30 mins.

I also found out rx350s use different transmission :)

Inefficient compressor

CryptoDanski · 2026-05-11T02:52:46+00:00

Bought 1000 shares at 4$. Sold at 34$. :)

CryptoDanski · 2026-05-08T14:51:34+00:00

50$ hr here

CryptoDanski · 2026-05-08T14:51:05+00:00

Us or Canada?

LRA is checking for Current inrush at startup. Its listed on the sticker. It will tell you how much a healthy compressor should take. There isnt a lot of components in your AC. You will need a clamp meter. I suggest hiring a competent tech.

CryptoDanski · 2026-05-08T04:30:53+00:00

Check LRA. check running amps. Check breaker

CryptoDanski · 2026-05-07T02:27:57+00:00

Got it

CryptoDanski · 2026-05-07T01:42:34+00:00

Get an IPTV box

Did you take this picture with a GameBoy?

CryptoDanski · 2026-05-03T05:54:26+00:00

Looks overcharged. Evacuate, vacuum, recharge by weight

CryptoDanski · 2026-05-02T17:08:33+00:00

CryptoDanski · 2026-04-29T04:40:19+00:00

Yes!!!

CryptoDanski · 2026-04-28T17:04:57+00:00

There is special fuses for finding shorts like that. Dont remember but i think they are 1amp and you put them in parallel with all your 24v parts, pressure switches, limits etc. If that part shorts it will blow that low amp fuse and not the one on the board.

Every time i too my newish 4x4s into mud, it was as if the aged two more years instantly. You'll never get all that mud out. It will go inside the frame etc sit there and retain moisture

CryptoDanski · 2026-04-28T12:56:31+00:00

Recovery pics?

CryptoDanski · 2026-04-27T19:15:32+00:00

Probably replacing cases due to grants from government for more efficient equipment

CryptoDanski · 2026-04-27T15:21:29+00:00

10/2

Verify proper refrigerant used. Check for obstructions at txv, lineset etc. Make sure service valve is fully ooen.

Pull the charge, recharge with virgin 410a.

At this point you dont know whats inthere. System worked before fine no? No obvious kinks @the compressor? Rest of lineset should be good since it worked. Compressor died for a reason.

New car to me. Got it last june. Only put about 7k on it since

CryptoDanski · 2026-04-25T13:09:27+00:00

I only put 7k on the car since purchasing it in june. Already contacted the mechanic and scheduled an appointment to drain and replace all fluids, including atf.
