    OT: Not sure how popular this one is bro, here.

    But that was the OEM compressor brand of the Nissan Vanette...

    BTW, what ride?

    Up-ing this....

    It isn't the compressor, although my compressor is also Zexel. I am looking for the thermosensor or thermoresistor or some call it the amplifier or thermostat controller. It is for my Isuzu trooper 1997 model local version.

    Its been rebaptized with different names, must be a born again.
    Since they called it fifferent names, youre not sure what it is. Wher is it located in the system?

    isn't this just an ordinary temp sensor?
    perhaps if you show it to the aircon boys, they can give you a "replacement unit" ?

    It’s attached to the fins of the evaporator, just like any other thermostat of air conditioners

    When I had it replaced many years ago with a mechanical thermostat controller, it turns off the compressor even or the temperature is not that cold yet, I believe the problem is with the calibration of the mechanical thermostat until I was able to but the electronic thermosensor, but again now it seems I need to replace it again that is why I am looking for one.

    go again to that place where you got that electronic thermostat, po.

    Just convert it to mechanical thermoswitch. Yung may adjustable knob.. i think standard naman yan 3 pin thermosensor.. parang ganyan din gamit ng kia at mitsu

    As mentioned earlier, I did that before but noticed mabilis mag shut off ang compressor ko kahit hindi pa masyadong malamig unlike the electronic one. That is why I thought na ang calibration is different kaya I am hoping to get the same electronic thermosensor to have the same comfort as it is

    Surprisingly, it did not. I already set it to maximum but still shuts off even if interior is not that cold yet compared to the electronic thermosensor. I really wondered why it is like that, that’s why I presumed that the calibration of the mechanical thermostat is different from the electronic one. Hoping also that someone who is well versed on car refrigeration can chime in to comment on this issue if there is really a difference on the calibration of the manual to electronic thermostats.

    has your aircon been "tampered with" ?
    i mean, are the other components original?
    i used to have a sedan. its evaporator sprung a leak. the aircon guy scrimped on the replacement component, by installing a cheaper model that fit the space, but was not a match to the car's aircon system. the resultant cool was "hilaw". replacing the evaporator with the correct but much more expensive evaporator model, brought the cool back to factory spec.

    Please read again.

    I didn't say it's the compressor bro.

    I said it is the (same) brand.

    Some local aircon spare parts shops carry zexel.

    There used to be a shop in the Kabihasnan Paranaque area, from the intersection going to the LPC direction, who used to sell zexel parts. Forgot the name. If you're near the area, worth checking it out.

    Still using R12?

    There are other reasons why it would stop cooling prematurely. Some vehicles have safeties that will disengage the compressor when there are issues. Some of which are, over-charging/under-charging of the refrigerant, engine overheating, etc. It could also be the compressor clutch thermal fuse cutting supply to the coils (due likely to overheating or a short in the coil). These are just off the top of my head.

    It's not my intention to make things complicated... just saying that unless you're absolutely sure that the above-mentioned temp sensor is really defective, I suggest you have it looked up by a qualified A/C technician.

    Sorry I misunderstood your statement as I was on the road earlier when I read it. I am in the province so I don't have the chance to visit the area unless there is a contact number that I can call so I can probably have it delivered via air freight if they have one available.

    The aircon has been cleaned few months ago and was performing very well until yesterday, the same symptoms I experienced so many years ago before I had my thermosensor replaced also.

    Thanks for your input and I am fully aware of the other variables. It is just that the car is showing the same symptoms I had years back when I was forced to replace the thermosensor.
    Earlier, I was at the local aircon parts supply here in the province and they confirmed that the mechanical thermostat has a different calibration from the electronics thermostat which confirmed my theory earlier. In this regard, I have no choice but to look for a supplier for the thermosensor.
