    It's the transistor or the switch = potentiometer; look at the above (very GOOD) thread by Gianni (plip) ;)

    Hello- my '91 TR was cooling very well until recently. Last week I could not start the car (the starter would just turn but never kick on the engine). Thanks to this forum I tried reseating the sensor connector underneath the expansion tank and viola it fired right up with barely a 2 second turn of the key. However, since that time my A/C has not been cooling. At first it would blow hot air for 2-3 minutes and then start cooling. As of this evening's 30 minute run it never cooled and consistently blows hot air in both circulation and air flow modes. Any thoughts on the source of this problem? Am I facing a potentially larger electrical issue? The connectors are all original (no gold kit).

    Any feedback would be much appreciated as I live in Texas and no A/C means no car. Cheers.

    +1...I use it all the time.

    When the weather is nicer, I drive my 308 which has no AC. I must say, I love having a Ferrari which has working AC.

    On a second note, I built an auxiliary relay/fusebox to take the AC and radiator fans circuits off of the main fuse board.

    Tim,
    Please post your refit of your AC/relay fusebox. Always good to see other peoples ideas.
