I am looking for the location of the a/c comprssor control relay on my 2003 4runner. When I turn on the a/c the compressor kicks on for a few seconds before shutting off and the a/c light starts flashing. I was told to check this relay but I cannot find the location. Thanks in advance to all replies.

usually the relay box its located on top of one of the fenders, aside of the engine and in the cover of the box you will find an schematic with the exact location of that relay.

Suggested Repair

Look in the relay box on top of a fender beside the engine. The diagram on the box cover should show the A/C compressor control relay location.
