I had the same thing happen to mine. Check the fusible links right next to the battery, and the white one (130amp) will be blown. Maybe a couple under the dash too.

Amazingly enough my $1000 Lex doesn't have any trouble codes... yet =) All the lights come on when you turn the key on so I know none of them were disconnected to hide a problem! Thanks for the links!

No, no puddles or anything, the person I bought it from said they brought it to a shop that put some dye in it and they could see the leak that way. I wiped all the lines clean, then cycled the wheel back and forth a few times after everything was warmed up, and I couldn't see anything... But I might just try using the dye and a blacklight. So no one has any ideas about the AC compressor not kicking on? I can't find a fuse for it, but it still blows, and changes modes.

Sorry, it was a fusible link I replaced, not a relay... The white 130 amp one behind the battery.:chairshot:

Just wondering if anyone is from around Eastern North Carolina, I just bought A 1991 LS400 and could use a few pointers from anyone with experience. I'm a DIY guy and this car is a little more tricky than my chevy pick-up!

I just bought a 1991 Ls400 for $1000. It has 140K on it, and almost everything works, runs and drives nice, etc. It has a couple ugly spots on it (right fender has a dent, cracked taillight, and a broken power antenna) but nothing that would stop me from driving it. Here's the questions.... It had a couple blown fuses and a blown relay because the guy accidentally reversed the polarity when installing the battery. I've fixed everything I could find, and now I only have one electrical issue. The AC display doesn't work (common, I understand), and the AC compressor won't come on. Is there a fuse or relay for it somewhere? I was told it worked before the battery incident.... The other problem is the power steering. I was told that it needed a new line but I can't pinpoint where it is leaking from. They just kept topping off the fluid till that didn't work anymore, and then they parked the car. That's when I bought it. For $1000 I couldn't say no! My aunt has the same car with over 300K on it and counting! I'd just assume buy a shorter belt and bypass the power steering pump somehow because I can't afford to replace the whole system on a USMC paycheck..... All help is appreciated!
