Thread: Toyota Landcruiser A/C Problem

Hi suction pressure means the tx valve isn’t blocked or stuck shut and may just mean the compressor isn’t turning. If the compressor has failed it could have spewed metal through the system which will catch in the tx valve. That might be why the have added it in the quote.
Can you get a phot of the tag on the compressor for me please it should say something like 10PA-15C.
There’s lots of good advice, I’ll add my 10cents. The receiver drier should be replaced ever time you open a system it remove moisture that’s a killer in refrigeration. One drop will freeze and block the tx valve, even the tiniest amount will turn to acid and rot out the system from the inside.

How handy are you with multi meters? Can you measure the resistance of the clutch coil? Measure between the wire going into the compressor and the body of the compressor should be 4ohms from memory.
