Hollywood Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 (edited) As per picture, I am sure I understand how the buttons are meant to work however my AC doesn't seem to be blowing cold despite the shop saying it's blowing freezing for them when they run it. So I'll just rattle off what I think is what and if I'm wrong someone stop me( I should have done this at the garage..). Pink - Temperature selection and fan speed Green - All fans/AC OFF Red - AC on/off Blue - air flow directional control Yellow - defrost options Orange - cabin circulation or draw-in from external vents When I turn AC on, the white box labelled "Auto" has the green LED above the fan icon come on and the fan speed dial goes to "Hi" setting. Is this intended? I can manually turn the fan speed down, and the AC green LED stays on, but at whatever fan speed, it doesn't seem to get cold to any noticeable point. Also, the orange box..I always assumed with vehicles that if you prefer the temperature outside the cabin, then you have the air draw in from outside. When you like the temperature and want it to remain constant, you switch to cabin circulation. ? Are Supra AC units particularly poor at reducing temperature quickly or? Maybe I'm a bit spoiled but, more than a minute is taking too long to get at least some drop in temperature.

Yes, one would assume you press AC and it automatically sets things in motion - from there you just adjust fan speed as desired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Previously I tested it on a road trip. AC was on for a good ten minutes and it certainly wasn't chilly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood Posted June 4, 2011 Author Share Posted June 4, 2011 good garage? or back street? Been a good garage so far. They work in tandem with a reputable dealership that sits next door. They also work on a lot of exotics and non a-typical cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
