Why is my 2003 Tacoma a/c sometimes not working and blowing hot air?
What is your question?
Intermittent blowing hot air when I turn on the ac. I have had it tested for leaks and professionally recharged. Sometimes it works great, like this morning, but couldn't get it to work yesterday afternoon; even changing it to heat, turning truck off and restarting etc.. it appears to be be getting more and more frequent. Only noise heard was what sounded like something moving around in ac vents? Best way I can describe it but that only happened one time last weekend. It was in the dash. The air conditioning was working great when it made the noise, but also worked great today with no noise. Hope this helps describe my truck's issue for help!
What makes this problem better or worse?
Appears to be worse when it's very hot
How long has your 2003 Toyota Tacoma had this problem?
RepairPal Certified shops can diagnose and repair your 2003 Toyota Tacoma. They provide transparent pricing with a minimum 12-month or 12,000-mile warranty on repairs and services.
Hello, your concern is either related to an under-hood electrical concern, such as with a compressor clutch / coil that is not engaging due to a failure of those components, a relay concern or a cycle switch concern. Alternatively, you could have an issue with your climate control system and temperature blend doors inside the vehicle.
Testing is needed for either concern, and it is not too hard to determine when you catch it in the act.
