Longest AC Refill I've Ever Done - Cheap Fix, AC Refill, And More

Toyota A/C not working and you're being told it may need a compressor? Before replacing the entire A/C compressor, the problem could be the A/C flow sensor. In this video, I diagnose and repair the A/C on my 2015 Toyota Camry SE by replacing the A/C compressor flow sensor. Instead of replacing the complete compressor, I was able to get the system working again with a repair that cost around $50. I walk through the process of accessing and replacing the flow sensor, show what I ran into along the way, and demonstrate that this can be a relatively straightforward DIY repair.

Important: Diagnose your vehicle before replacing parts. An A/C system can stop working for many different reasons, and a failed flow sensor will not be the cause in every case.

I particularly like including that diagnostic disclaimer because it keeps the video from implying that every Toyota A/C problem is a $50 sensor.
