Global supply issues affecting the automotive manufacturing industry...

Global supply issues affecting the automotive manufacturing industry are causing new vehicle delivery delays and inventory of some vehicles may be limited. Please contact your local Lexus Dealership for information about availability of your preferred Lexus vehicle.

Air Conditioning Systems

Condenser

  • The high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant from the compressor passes through the condenser, where it is cooled and changes from a gas to a liquid.

Receiver

  • The refrigerant liquefies in the condenser and is stored in this tank for supply to the evaporator. On newer Lexus models the receiver is integrated into the condenser.

Compressor

  • It compresses the refrigerant, and sends it to the condenser under high pressure.

Cabin air filter

  • Captures unwanted particles such as pollen, dust and other pollutants before they enter your vehicle’s passenger compartment.

Cooling unit

  • Includes evaporator, expansion valve and thermistor.

Blower unit

  • Blows air into the passenger compartment.

Expansion valve

  • Atomizes liquefied refrigerant as it enters the evaporator.

Evaporator

  • Vaporizes the refrigerant which cools the evaporator. Air passing through the evaporator is cooled before entering the passenger compartment.
