Default Re: Heater quit... sort of

woo hoo! my wife has a 2002 toyoter highlander, she took it to the car wash today and when they were done she said she had no a/c she asked me where the coolant goes, after i stopped chuckling i told her im sure the car wash did not sabotage her vehicle (she hates it when i refer to it as a suv or vehicle she calls it a car) god bless her ignorant mind yuk yuk i also told her it is freon she might be thinking of, so i told her she can take the truck and i will take the highlander to work and take it to the dealer in the am, first off i was lucky to have a fellow employee who used to work on toyotas, he determined that the freon was full and the a/c compressor was on, and we narrowed it down to the knob, however he did not know the cheap fix, i searched the internet looking for recalls when i came across your site i simply removed the knob and tightned the 12 mm nut and ta da! cold air, while i was at it i tightened the nut on the other knob on right (vent selector) and called her up at work and told her that the nuts were loose and she made a joke and that was it. thank you so very much
