wow!... It seems I saved my self 1000+ bucks for typing "toyota highlander AC problem" into google and clicking a couple of times. i didn't have to even type the whole thing, cause google types popular searches for you !! lol
... God bless the internet and God bless this thread
now to bussiness: i just found this thread and unfortunatelly it's too dark ouside to work on the car, but I just want to make sure before I open the thing tomorrow - the loose wires apply to the opposing problem as well, right?... meaning, my AC is hot all the time, even when it's off and i am driving fast on the freeway, STILL hot air blows !
