    Hello guys and ladies

    I just replaced the A/C compressor, dryer, expansion valve. I opend up the ductwork to check the evaporater for any obstructions on the outside of the evaporater. Put everything back together, evacuated the system, and charged it. Put the dash back together. Everything works except for the radio, clock, ambient temperature reading. I also have an icon lite for an air bag. I pulled the dash skin back off to double check all my connections. I disconnected the battery before I started this project. The A/C works beautifully, defrost, and heat work as it should as well. I checked all the fuses. I'm at a loss. Can anyone help me out?

    Thanking you in advance,

    Anthony C

    I apologize for the late response, it was just one wire that connected to the fuse panel that kept disappearing in the dash when I tilted it to put it place. I found it when I started to trace the wiring in the dash. I had the dash on the tailgate and noticed this wire that I know I didn't connect while the dash was in place. Bingo! that was the problem.
    Once again I apologize for the late reply. It is a must reply for other Tundra guys and gals here in the community.

    Also I’d like to note. To get at the expansion (TXV) valve without taking out the dash. Remove the steering wheel assembly. You will be able to see the lines going into the TXV.
    If the evaporator has a leak the dash has to come out to get to the plentum.
