Scion XB A/C intermittently working

Topic starter

Hey there, I have a 2012 Scion XB, automatic with 193,000 miles. Recently replaced the the A/C compressor, condenser, expansion valve, high pressure switch, and the blower motor resistor. The car is still having the same issue as it did before of cooling intermittently, although it happens far less frequently and is much colder now. I recently noticed that the fan nearest to the battery will shut off and the air will start to get warm and will cool off when the fan kicks back on. I also tried replacing all 3 fan relays with no luck. Also starting to notice condensation in the air vents which is new. And the Freon level is still full. My wife is going to kill me if I don’t figure this out soon, since we live in a desert lol. Any help would be great as I could not find a thread related to this issue. Thanks in advance!

Realize those cooling fans operate through a computer system and it could be that computer system is starting to break down. But really you want to fix a permanently you can easily hook up a toggle switch to turn the fan on manually then whenever you run the AC you can just turn the switch on and when you don't you turn it off. Otherwise you're going to need a Toyota mechanic who's an expert to go through all those electronics

Thank you so much! I’ve been dealing with this for 4 years now. I’m gonna do just that!
