    I have a 2005 and the dash push button to turn on the AC has a red indicator lite, I thought I remembered it being green but maybe not. Looked in my owners manual and couldn't find anything about the lite color. What color should it be if it's working properly or not. Thanks

    Pretty sure it only has one color. Don't you have red instrumentation?

    If there is a problem it may flash or not come on at all

    If your AC is working properly don't focus on the color.

    If it doesn't like you or the condition of the truck, it will flash.

    My 2010 is orange as well.

    However, some other vehicles use green. My wife's 2014 Rav4 is one.
