A/C help please

[04SR54me]

My '04 SR5 with 260k started doing something new. My A/C starts off cold, then after about 5-10 minutes, it starts blowing luke warm and the little light on the A/C switch that is at the 3 o'clock position, starts to blink. If I shut the A/C off, and restart it, it will blow cold for a bit, but then goes luke warm.
Any ideas? Thanks!

There's a bunch of posts on this. When it happened to mine it was the AC relay sticking. You can swap the relay with something less used to test it. There's multiple things that use the same relay type in that fuse box.

did you recently refill the gas?. overfilling can also cause this. throw a set of manifold guages on the hi and low sides...and read off the pressures, lets start from there
