Good Afternoon Fellas !!
Well got in the Ole Turtle today and pushed the A/C button.. light is green but compressor did not come on o_O. HELP !! I would Die in Texas without that A/C:oops:
Ohhh mercy !!! 80 deg today . Anyway checked for rat chewings , nota. Checked Fuses they are all good. Worked a few days ago..
Could be low on freon ?? meaning it got a leak . found fuse diag, but can not find what the relays go to..
One MUST be a A/C Relay ? in the two central boxes between fuse black 1 and 2
Hope you fellas can point me in the right direct that I hope wont end up at the dealer

Open up the bed look for the compressor. With engine off key off reach in and turn the center of the cluth by hand to confirm compressor isnt locked. Turn on key engine off annd push the ac button in and cycle the fan to 1 position then go and repeat turning the compressor center should be locked to the clutch. If it isn't find the high low switch in the suction line and jump the terminal with a paper clip. If the clutch engage you then need to check your freon charge with gages.
 
Thanks for they replies, wasnt the relay, Compressor not locked up. must have lost charge.. Sooo means it has a leak somewhere ? Got a set of gages,. Will have to do some you tubing and close reading of that WSM to recall how to use them..
Lot cooler today 62. so best wait till in the 80,s again. Fingers Crossed

If you need freon add a can with the dye in it and then get special flashlight from Amazon or someplace and after it runs a while you can find the leak with ease. The little flashlight will make the leak glow
 
Ohh K Did your paper clip test .. Clutch DOES engage compressor with key on a/c button pushed , paperclip inserted and fan blowing. Must be low. will check it and add some but do I need to wait till the ambiant air temp is higher around here ? Kinda cool today. I have a UV light ,, somehwhere

It would work better with higher temps but not necessary. Check the pressure temperature or pt chart for high low at your ambient temp. Or just use one of those parts store set ups and put some in and go
 
Well finally got around to charging the system with the added dye.. got it cooling and pressures low 28 hi 195 .. next day pushed button not cooling again. damn must have a good leak . but unless my UV light sux I cant seem to find where shes leaking.
 
Check the place where the condensation drips out real good. Run it long enough to get a good condensor drip going. If your evap coil or expansion valve are leaking it will show in the condensation drip
 
Well, heres a update.. (or down date) I got out there again tonite with the uv light . Looked all over the machine compressor. hoses. condenser. discharge/ drain. crawled up under and all . only glow in the dark mess I see is where I squirted it puttin the dye in the LP port. (Look at the mess I made) all the spirt dots are on a nice spider web near the port. Might give up an take her to the hospital. darn the cost of UTV Health Care

Aurthur..
your so smart ! hotter than crap today , charged it up good . got her to drip and YEP. its in the drips Not the leak I was hoping to find. but found it with your help ! Man thats gonna be expensive aint it ! bat looking its cheaper than those Kubota a/c lines !!
 
hmm , is it hard to tear into it to check ? Hate to take whole dash apart and have take to hospital in pieces. I dont find any videos anywhere of some one ripping the dash apart in one of those
 
OMG😭. Im gonna be sick:sick:. thought I would share this with you guys so ya'll can be sick with me. At least tell me what a idiot I am. But what else is a guy to do ? Got her to the Stealer/ Dealer hospital yesterday , They called today and yep needs the evap core. only comes in the whole assembly .Basic a complete air heart replacement. $$$$ The guy said he had been at that Kubota dealer for 25 years and this is the first one he has ever had to replace in a RTV so shot the labor high as hell , but he dont think it will be that steep. Estimate 4200.00 ... Holy Shat ! shame I am addicted to cold air in the summer. Told em go ahead ! :sleep: With almost 10k hours on the machine he says its still is amazing shape..
 
Good Question. I will find out at some point/
Told them I would like to keep the old assembly as its loaded with parts. Blend door actuators , cabin filter, fan motor and whatnot.
makes my gut churn :fart2:
