Well, it gets better. The a/c is intermittent, or at least worked once this week. But can not get it to again. Have tried mashing the button, turning on defrost, etc, multiple times. To my way of thinking that leaves the module or low charge. But would it work at all with low charge in the system?

Is the HVAC control module the same as the engine PCM?

I now have a disc of the vibes service manual, and it is the worst one I have seen. (and I have seen quite a few) No section I can find that has component locations. On the circuit for the ac clutch, it is fed from the HVAC control module. Of course it does not say where that is, and I wonder if it ...

Hmm. Just out of the 3 year warranty by a couple months. Maybe an independent then.

Toyota service or GM?

So my wife's vibe (09 30Kmiles) needs the ac fixed.I want the best value of time spent. Since it is mostly Toyota, my guess is they might get to the problem quicker. On the other hand if it winds up being the engine ECM, it would fall under the 8/80 warranty, and would be in theory, free. What do yo...

2009 a hodge podge vibe?

I get the feeling it is. Things like the fuse/relay center not reflecting reality. There is a second small relay box on the passenger side of the engine. In that, and the main relay box are relays labeled the same (heater sub 1). I read elsewhere on the web that the 2009 wiring diagrams in the FSM d...

Sorry you bought into this. You have to think of hydrogen as a state of energy, not a fuel.Lets face it, this has been around a while. If it worked even with a minutia of gain, you would see places to put water in cars. The web sites posted state it well enough, I won't go into it, but as they say, ...

The owners manual really is poor, the pics of the fuse box does not reflect reality.

09 A/C inop.

Can not hear it cycling, so I don't know if it is the relay or PCM or clutch.Tried to guess which relay it was, and could not. I went with the one closest to battery, but it does not click when ac is cycled on. The cover for the engine compartment and the manual for the car are a joke, none of them ...
