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.
My lexus speedoment does'nt work no running at all....I do not why it happened suddenly?
it would be a 5 by 6 belt for a magnum for a Lexus you would need a 3 by 7
You add freon to the low side fitting,top front,on the ac compressor
You will have to figure out why: This the 90% of the time failur: Is there Freon in the system, if there is not a minimum pressure, usually 17 PSI, the compressor will not run. Is the compressor and clutch capable of working? Is the fuse in good shape.
Can be the alternator going bad, water pump going bad, or a transmission problem. Have this diagnosed by a professional.
You need to have a mechanic service your car. The flashing light means the compressor is not engaging.

No, it is not needed because the intake charge is at ambient temperature already( hasn't been compressed by a compressor).
check the a/c clutch when those go out the whole system shorts out
It's either low on charge, has bad wiring, needs a new pressure switch or needs a new clutch.
Lexus is the car company responsible for making the model IS200. The Lexus IS200 made it's debut in Europe in the year of 1999 and in America in the year of 2000.
the best 2013 luxury cars are probably a mercedes-benz or a lexus. If you really want luxury, then it would be something very expernsive but you should cheek out what mercedes and lexus are making now.
