Guys there are 2 ways to look at this. This method has been recommended by the manufacturer itself via their manual. This procedure is call the diagnostic code clearance.This is usually done as the ECU stored the code in the memory itself. Now to clear one possible way is removing the EFI Fuse ( 20A ) for 10 seconds or more with the ignition switch off. Cancellation must be done by removing the Battery ( negative (-) terminal, but in this case you will lose our otehr memory setting like teh clock, radio preset stations etc.It is neccessary to remove the Battery terminal to have teh diagnostic code removed. After cancelllation road test the vehicle to check that a normal code is now read on the panel. Usually this new warning light shoudl dissappear after the ignition start. It indicates the trouble areas has been repaired thoroughly.
(2) The second method is Place transmission in neutral position, AC switched off. Turn ignition switch off. Using SST tool p/n # 09843-18020 connect the terminals between TE1 and E1 of the TDCL. This is located at the driver side below position.. Now the ignition switch on. YOu will see 3 flashes of the warning. Sinulate the condtition for 2 times more , and they will disappear.

Hi simon
EPA phased out R-12, which I believe took 15 years to that job, unofficial they are available around UK , they are environrant pollutants . The entry of R134A came in around 1992 and thus became controlled . R134A. are known to be used from 1992 onward models as OEM.
Most retro kits did not work as well as OEM systems do now, since 134a requires MUCH less to cool the same amount of air (hence more energy efficient).
The major difference between the two according to my instruction was the size of the tubing in the entire system, r-12 needed larger tubes than 134a, and attempting to use the r-12 "legacy" type evaporator/condenser units in addition to the compressor... depending on how much you love your car, the LS400 1992 model onwards have started to use the R134A as the standard cooling equipment. In short to find whether it is R12 or R134 it is the tubing system which you can easily differenciate.
