My A/C is not working. The compressor is not starting. I checked the fuse panel and the diagram shows one fuse for A/C. The fuse slot has a blank in it - no fuse? I checked the fuse panel by the steering wheel - no A/C fuse on the diagram. I called Lexus service and they were vague and noncommittal-I guess they want their 135 an hour to tell me I need a fuse. Can you tell me where to look? Is there a relay to the compressor that can be checked or a pressure switch?
