AC problems for 1998 Toyota Camry

I have a 1998 Toyota Camry with two AC problems. The first problem is that the AC doesn't come out of the dash vents anymore only comes out near the windsheild & side vents & now when I have the AC on the antifreeze is running back into the reservoir & when the car is cut off it goes back into the radiator...Help please.

When you adjust the positions for the vents, there are electronic solenoids under the dash that open and close the proper louvers to direct the air flow. There is a chance that that control has gone bad. As far as the A/C is concerned, I would check the condensor for damage, and have the A/C checked. The charge might be low.

Turn signals in my 98 Toyota Camry don't blink. And the the front passenger window doesn't work. Niether does the car lamp inside the car.

If just one window doesn't work, that is a separate issue, and probably a bad motor for that window. The inner door panel would have to be removed to investigate if it is the motor or a wire not connected.
For the radio and lights, all I could say is check the fuses.
For the blinkers try a new flasher. I've never heard this before, you must be pretty adept at it by now. Wiggling it to make it work means either the connection is poor or the flasher has a foot ******- Replace it!

How to connect aftermarket radio into 2002 toyota camry JBL radio (the standart wiring doesn't work).Thanks

Your aftermarket radio should have color-coded wires which identifies power, ground, speakers, etc. most depaetment stores carry a radio harness adapter kit. This will connect to your radio's exact color coded wires, and will plug right in to your factory's wiring plug. And don't forget electrical tape.

Ac on 97 Camry not working,no power to compressor can run hot from battery ac comes on.check all fuses and relays ok.

AC systems have a pressure switch that prevents compressor from engaging when freon is low.auto parts stores sell a kit includes a hose W/a gauge & a can of freon.look for the one w/dye in it to show if you have a leak.
