03 with a/c problems - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

The a/c went out without warning. So far 55000 miles and I haven't had one problem with the car. The compressor isn't clicking on when I hit the a/c button. The engine idles up so I know its not the switch and I can see that the compressor isn't coming on. I looked at the fuse box under the hood but couldn't find the relay or fuse that controls the compressor.
Any other thoughts and where can I find that relay/fuse?
Thanks!
Eric

There's another fuse box located inside the car above the pedals (above the dead pedal to be exact. The A/C fuse is located in there.

Cool, I'll look there, I guess I have to take the whole panel off to get to the box? I should get a service manual at some point.

No, you can gain access from underneath.

maybe a big fat hole in the condensor!

Nope condenser is good.

No way I could fit under the dash to look at that relay. I couldn't see where it was located on the box. The diagram on the fuse box was no help.
