• Q: How to Service and Repair the A/C Switch Control Assembly on 2001 Toyota 4Runner?

  A: The A/C control assembly service and repair begins with unscrewing the 2 A/C control panel screws and releasing the 4 claws with a screwdriver after taping the screwdriver tip. After unlocking the lock of the connector you need to pull out the flat harness running through the A/C control panel. You must free the 4 claws from the holder of the A/C amplifier before extracting the connector by holding it onto its end. The bulb removal process involves turning the screwdriver left to extract it from its position. When reinstalling the A/C control panel bulb you should return it into position and turn it to the right to establish its proper place. Start by taking out the amplifier from its electrostatic prevention bag while inserting its connector into the NC control panel case and finishing the installment with holder attachment followed by a check of the amplifier connector. Complete the installation by unlocking the connector lock while pushing the flat cable into position followed by the A/C control panel installation. Verify the fitting of the 4 claws then secure it using 2 screws.
