Hello! I have a '97 LX450 and I'm having a strange issue with my AC. Here is what's going on.
1) It seems to cut off during trips.
2) When I drive around town, it's fine.
3) When I drive at interstate speed for longer than an hour or so, the AC cuts off (60 mph or faster).
3a) When not interstate speed, still cuts off, but normally cuts off after a 1hr & half to 2 hrs.
4) Sometimes the AC comes back on and sometimes it doesn't. I think it's an electrical issue, b/c the AC comes back when I hit a bump in the road (but only sometimes)
5) When I stop for gas, then continue my trip, the AC works fine, but for only 5 minutes of so and then it cuts off again.
I took my car into a reputable A/C mechanic earlier this summer, but they couldn't duplicate the issue, so they couldn't correct it - again, only happens during trips longer than a hour.
Anybody have a similar experience? Any advice and/or troubleshooting tips would be greatly appreciated.
