New AC compressor for my 93 Ranger was $156.
Below the radiator fan
there is no thermostat. the ac is either on or off. if the chilled air on low speed is too cold, move the temperature control to add warm air into the air stream. the ac compressor on type a3, a4, a5 jettas (93 on) does not cycle on and off like pre-93 jettas. the compressor is a variable volume type which internally adjusts refrigerant flow based on ac system pressures.
From the metering device outlet to the compressor inlet.

You add freon to the low side fitting,top front,on the ac compressor
it would be a 5 by 6 belt for a magnum for a Lexus you would need a 3 by 7
From 87-93 on the drivers side, regardless of year you cant miss or mistake it

You need to have a mechanic service your car. The flashing light means the compressor is not engaging.
Are you sure it is the A/C Compressor and not the power steering pump? LS400, SC 300 and SC 400 are known to have power steering pump issues that leak onto the compressor causing ac compressor failure. Replace the pump as soon as you see a leak.
You will need to buy and install an ac bypass pulley from Napa or other parts store to bypass the ac compressor.You will need to buy and install an ac bypass pulley from Napa or other parts store to bypass the ac compressor.
