Hilux Legend 45 Aircon system

Something strange happened to my Aircon Setup.

When I start up my Hilux, the Aircon systems' windscreen defrost light burns, and stays alight for about two minutes and then only do I have full functionality of the whole aircon system??

Any advise before I take it to Toyota?

Thank you
