Hello! I'm new here. I got a problem with my Premio 2002 AC a few days back, with it's AC button started blinking and AC stopped working. When I reached home I took it to a mechanic and he repaired it and said that the compressor is damaged it may or may not work. It worked after just about 5 mins and then he said you have to change the compressor. He said compressor gonna cost 12000. Next day I went to another mechanic and he said the same but when he opened the AC set up, he told me that Condenser needs to be changed as that was the cause of compressor failure. Even if you change a compressor it might stop working after a few months. I told him to change both. He installed a Denso Compressor (Indonesian made) while the original in the car was of Japan. AC works fine but when I stop the car it stops working as well. I called him and he told me to take to him again it seems like a sensor problem. The compressor I had in my car was a sensor one and the one he installed is without a sensor so he had to do some setting for it to work along with the sensor. I could not get a sensor compressor because no one was dealing in sensor compressors saying sensor compressors have no warranty from us it may or may it work so I had to go with a nonsensor compressor and now I am gonna visit hum tomorrow to fix the sensor. I hope he fixes it else it gonna be one hell of a pain in my ass. It cost me 19000 for compressor + condenser + AC pipe (Which was licking). In short, I have a completely new set up.
If it still doesn't work after spending 19000 I don't know what else to do than "
