The kindness of a strangers. Why can't everyone get along and help each other.
Sir your area very kind. Especially to take time to personally answer individual questions.
😂 you helped me show my husband up. He told us a air compressor on my daughter's car. He swore this was a waste of money and you were sending us (daughter and me) on a goose chase.
Bam showed him who was goin on a chase. He apologizes and says will never doubt me again
lol yeah good job!!!! 👍 glad u took the time to!!!! I have tons of videos on this five small stuff bulbs light brake light bulbs fuses all good help!!
I been out without A/C for almost a year, went to a mechanic got quoted for 1,100 because (compressor was bad) i go on youtube and see your video amd did what exactly what you did and now my A/C is working 100%! Thank you brother you saved me 1,100 and only spent $9
Hell yeah brother !!!! I’m glad u found this video!!!!!
was the issue just the relay for you?
@@daM00SEisL00SE yup this is very common issue
So could you pull the fog light relay and put it in the ac spot to try to diagnose before buying a new relay even tho there like 10$
Awesome
I live in Florida and a 20amp fuse fixed my issue...thank you so much for taking the time out of your life to help others so they don't get ripped off...a $3 fix compared to whatever someone else would charge for something you didn't need
Auto shop quoted me $1200 saying I had a broken compressor. Did this for $10 and it worked!! Thank you!
Glad it helped!! Good job
I fixed my a/c doing exactly as he said. 2008 Honda Civic. Changed the fuse and took the Relay out and took it to Autozone for new part. It was a $16 part. As soon as I pulled away I had air again. I am a girl. I have no mechanical skill but this was super easy. Thank you so so so much for making this video. Someone would have charged me a lot for such a easy fix. $16 dollars. Woo hooo!
Good job!!! Great fix and saved hell of money ... they would had changed ur ac compressor and charge $1000 well good fix!!!
@@RBTheMechanic I totally agree. I can’t thank you enough!!!
@@thelastsongtoday yup no problem here to always help with anything car related please subscribe and when ever u need help just send me a message.
@@RBTheMechanic thank you so much I will surely do that.
@@RBTheMechanic Check what I posted in your messages please help me brother
YES!! You just made my day. It's like 90 degrees out + I couldn't take no a/c anymore. So I was about to take it in to a shop to get fixed when I saw your video. Blammo! The a/c condenser fuse was dead. After a quick replacement -- it WORKS! Thanks so much. From yet another girl who doesn't mind getting my hands dirty now + then.
Nice job!!! You did good! Easy quick fix!!!
After a long winter, my a/c of the same model car in the video stopped cooling when we had a 2 day heat wave. I first suspected coolant leak or loss coolant, but the dial readings look ok as it held pressure. Then, it might be more serious when I needed to review anything that moved. So it was either the two things mentioned, the clutch or something serious. Thankfully this video saved me grief and it was just the two things in the electrical box to replace. So the lesson for me is to learn to rule out problems better systematically. This guy made my day and we are having a much more pleasant mother's day. Now I have some extra coolant and leak sealer for next time.
Nice glad u found my video !! Happy Mother’s Day!!!
@@RBTheMechanic I want to do a video of a quirky Dodge Caravan Evap leak also, but my father already took out the solenoid and fixed it before I had a chance to film anything. The check engine code was misleading. I ended up replacing the solenoid even though a ton of videos suggest the metering pump was at fault. I took a wild guess since that was the only other moving part because we had no fume leaks. The engineers don't make it easy and some repairs would've given mechanics a bad rep because it's just so difficult to diagnose.
I've had no A/C for over two years. This video fixed my problem in 5 minutes. Bravo brother thank you so much!!!
Nice job!!!!! But some 2 years no ac that’s brutal anyways food job tackling this yourself!!
Where did you get the relay, he didn't mention where you got it
@@yasonmunniz if you have the old one take with you to an auto store and ask them if they have the same one or if can order it for you. Also check your a/c charge. I had to charge mine so it might have not even been the fuse
@@tonycordovatc thank you bro!
Lol I'm dieing after 3 days
Thank you!! i'm a grown woman and this helped out sooo much! i tried what you showed here and nothing, but then i remembered i had taken cabin filter and air filter out to clean them a week or so ago and i must have touched the blower wheel and prevented it from moving?? but i also pulled the fuse and the relay fuse and re-inserted them and this morning began with the vents and they are now blowing air out and the air is coold!!! so a combination of my efforts yesterday and watching videos last evening gave me an incentive to retry today and it worked right away! Thank you!!!
Oh good job as I read ur message it got me worried u did this and that but at end it worked good job!!
@@RBTheMechanic well.... tried it again later in the afternoon....and warm/cool air; i did purchase a new relay fuse this evening, but didn't change anything. a friend wrote me that he thinks it just might need a recharge. that's a fresh bit of Freon, correct? i hope that's all. will let you know come next Wed evening, as my appt for an oil change and them to check the ac system is on Wed the 7th of Sept.
YOur bad ass bud. I am the TOOLPRO, you showed me in five minutes more than anyone else how to quickly and easily diagnose a no ac compressor . Mucho bueno amigo. Ryan Menke
My sons AC went out today. Gave this video a run and nine dollars later he's up and running. Thanks, great advice
Nice job!!!!
Man, my AC stopped working on my car about 3 weeks ago out of no where and I was not trying to take it in only to get told I had a faulty compressor or leak. Saw your video and literally replaced fuse (not it) and then went to O’reillys, 10 bucks later popped that AC compressor relay in and voila! AC kicked on! Thanks man, def helped save some big money and kept it straight forward. Appreciate it!
Nice job I’m glad u took the time and did this by ur self!!! Great fix !!!
Man, you are amazing. I have been driving my car for past one w/o cooling. Everyone was quoting me $500-600 to fix it. I just changed the relay as you suggested, Boom 💥 it worked. Can’t be more thankful! 🙏🏼
I’m grad you took the time to do this!!!! Well done!!! It’s
Common problem on most honda Acura’s and Toyota!! I get like 100 of these every summer I usually charge diagnostic $89 and $11 for new new relay
Where can i buy a relay?
@@jeffreyele7703.. most auto parts stores or Amazon
'll this fix if it starts out cool then gets hot?
I got my civic for cheap as AC was "busted" and required an expensive fix.
Bought this for £5.99 and it actually worked and fixed the the AC!
Thank you
Hell yeah good job I bet the seller sold it cuz of ac is out
Saved me a big repair bill at the dealership. $10 part 5 minutes. Cold Air. Fixed my son's AC problem. I owe you a coffee!!
Nice good job!!!
Man i went last summer without ac. I wasnt trying to do that again! This video saved me! The plug where the wires connected was having a bad connection. I unplugged it, cleaned it and put some bulb grease in there. Boom, worked like brand new. Thanks a million bro!
Which plug? But Nice good job!!!
The wires that you said to check. There is a connector there. I guess it goes to the ac unit to turn it on or off
Thanks you sir just changed it and it works like a charm ur the goat
No problem 👍
Did exactly what you said & it's fixed.
Air conditioning place was gonna charge $759. To fix.
After they charged me
$120.00 to diagnose.
Thanks Midas.
This guy was easy to follow.
I appreciate that.
My husband was very impressed with it too.
Nice job!!!
Thanks buddy! You have saved your followers all combined; more than $1 million!! Bravo
Thank u
You helped me out so much man! Cant thank you enough. My AC would blow cold but it would take 15 minutes for it to kick in. It was so weird. I even changed the fans, everything. Cost me a crap ton. This was all I needed! Much love from TX!
Oh wow but I’m glad u found my video so at end it’s fixed I always say check the basics!!! Good job!!
I appreciate you putting out this video. Yesterday I went out on my jet ski on the lake and my 2007 Honda Civic had ice Cold Air coming back from the lake until it just went hot. I was thinking it had to be something like this but not until your video did I know where to look. I figured if it was a leak it would change temperature slowly and this was just like night and day cold air was gone. Make a long story short my relay was a little bit more expensive at $14.99 but it took care of what would have been I'm sure an expensive problem. Thank you I know you saved me a lot of money not sure exactly how much because I didn't take it anywhere. I had no idea how to take the relay out so your video was very informative with that as well
Yeah
Yup where u live ? It’s cold out here in my area
@@RBTheMechanic Florida, it was in the 80's when it went out
@@ericburch6847 oh yeah I love that state one day I’m gonna move out there after retirement
My 2011 Civic a/c just started blowing hot air all of a sudden. Took it to Goodyear to get it checked out. They told me the compressor was bad and needed to be replaced. They quoted me a price of $1,750 to fix it. I told them HELL NO! I'm going to replace the relay tomorrow and see if that works. Thx for your video.
Yeah definitely try relay check fuse and ac pressure
Should've found this video 1.5 years ago, thank you!
Yeah always good
To know even if it’s late this is common issue will occur again and again
Went to a mechanic today.
"Reputable" repair shop, 7 years in business.
The mechanic recharged my AC system, looked, and said: "eeeeh, the AC compressor internally failed, so because it internally failed, you need a whole system replacement, with labor $1990". My car is 2006 year made and a salvage title with lots of cosmetic issues.
The answer was this little $10 relay, got it tested with a 9V battery and a multimeter. Appeared faulty. Almost 200 times difference in price on what they quoted and what I paid to fix the actual issue.
This mechanic guy will be receiving a _killer_ review in the upcoming days.
Hell yeah bro tag my video #rbthemechanic so they get piece of me also!!!! Glad u found the issue and fixed it quick and easy
I am not very mechanically minded unfortunately, but thanks to this video I could fix the aircon all by myself for under $15. Thank you so much.
Good job!!!
Man excellent information Sir!
did the uv dye inspection no leaks.
Didn't even think about the relay!
Yeah this is the very first thing I do swap or change the relay
the fan isn't coming on
@@nestorroman2694 check relay fuse and power ground
@@RBTheMechanic fan did come on. Turned out to be a leak on the hose going to the condenser.

Great video RB, you covered most all possibilities, Thanks, keep up the good work.
Yup thank you!! This video was worth it helped lot of people ladies girl woman’s single mom all messed me how this worked for them!! And they had no ac for years
Thanks brother. This worked for me. I don't have to ride around sweating any more

I don’t think so? Just new Condenser (Leaking) & Labor=$800. I will find out Monday Morning! They probably didn’t even check the coolant? Fans or at least one fan works? Always did. It was the cool air that would stop after a while. Like a few people here said it seemed on the highway fine then slowing down it would blow out regular air/not cool.
@@stephanieb6578 yeah let them check it and u can take it a look urself
I will try this tomorrow. I hope it fixes my issue. Thanks for your information
Thank u!! Yup. Update me how it went
Tell people to get a long screwdriver and spin or push the clutch around and with God's help it worked for me. I tried what you said and it did not work for me but the pushing on the clutch that might have been tucked worked.
Lol ok
Lot of love and respect for you from Pakistan
Thank you my friend!!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!! I haven’t been using a civic with no AC in TX summer 😭
Welcome!!! Good job figuring this out urself!!!!
I'm going to try that on my 2010 Civic in a few weeks.. Thank You..
Good luck!
I know you making mechanics mad😂 but gonna check the fuses brother, short to the point video. Good shit
Not mad they actually have it easy now and know why they messed up and should had checked this first
Pure genius thank you so much that fixed the AC somehow the fuses got mixed up
Great video, I have a 2010 Honda civc ex-l sedan. Every one of your to do's seems to be working fine. Air conditioner will blow sometimes cool, for a couple minutes, then just starts blowing hot air! Checked the low end value with a cheap gauge and says freon level is in the green. Any ideas? Thanks Drew
Well swap out the relay just for the heck of it … it could be fault intermittently other wise don’t be fooled by the pressure reading it can be hot air pressure if the relay don’t work then do ac service using ac machine recover vaccum and then recharge with correct amount oil and r134
@Drew B did you follow @RB The Mechanic’s advice. My 2010 civic is having the same issues with the A/C. It blows cool for a while then it gets hot. In Texas heat driving around like that is brutal.
Watch this video. A little more troubleshooting involved and it might help you @Drew B

@@CareBearScaredMeI'm having the same problem. What was wrong with your car? What fixed the issue? Thanks.
I also hear that a bad ac relay or a bad MG clutch fuse can have vampiric power drain on your Civic when the car is off.
Yes
Hola Love your video and thanks but my ac just stopped out of nowhere and I replaced the relays and fuses, fans or compressor did not kick on until I added a can of freon but the air was still not cold. I turned the honda off did a self diagnostic test got no flashes but when I turned car on the fans and compressor stopped any ideas of what to do next?
U might have to do full ac service with ac machine and then try to see how it reacts
Thank you for your video and time.
Welcome!!!
If the AC light turns on after pressing the button on the dashboard, could the issue still be related to the relay ?
Mechanic said he put gauges on my Compressor, and the low was a vacuum, and the high was 80 (not 200). He has flushed the system, "blown out the lines", and installed new compressor, condensor, and some switch. Fuse is fine he says (because compressor works). He didn't say anything about the relay. What do you think is going on?
I would check fuse and relay swap before anything not sure about that vaccum reading
Just got A/C again!!! Thanks Brotha! 👊🏾🙏🏾
Nice job!!! Glad this resolved you ac issue!!!
Hello, there sir. I know there are quite a few reasons why my 2006 Honda Civic Coupe's AC doesn't work. However, I still remember a clue on the day the AC on my car stopped working. There was a "deflating tire sound" coming from the front part of the car. I'm guessing that something ruptured in some part of the engine. The car drives perfectly though it lacks AC. Hope I can get some helpful input.
The noise could be the clutch is burned out on ac compressor but how ever start with check ac pressure a sign that u got pressure win the system is if u put ac on and both radiator fans come on that’s indication that system got pressure and works now u need to check fuse relay and power to ac compressor if the compressor dosent come on
dude it worked!!!!! thank you very much for the video.
Nice job!!!! Easy fix and very common issue
Thank you solve my problem. My Ac is working
Nice job!!! Good job tackling this simple issue with ac!!!
Hello, what should I do if the air conditioning fan works but the radiator fan does?
Check fuse and relay if both r good then it could be bad fan u need to check power and ground on connector of fan to confirm fan is bad
03 Honda Accord! I can’t wait to try this! Also, I just moved to Texas from Cali. Any recommendations on how to keep my car cool and running properly in this heat.
Welcome to Texas..
Do you have to pull out fuse to install new relay? Other videos I have seen did not include this step. Thank you.
No engine off and key out that’s it and swap the relay
Will condenser still spin if relay is bad or does that just mean that AC needs a recharge?@@RBTheMechanic
I literally have an appointment for the mobile mechanic to come out on Friday, im going to try this first thing tomorrow morning and see how it goes. My AC went out a few days ago, added a can of Freon and still not cold so I figured id pay the $180 for him to come out and diagnose it, really hoping this is my issue. Based on all the other comments and replies seems like a common issue.
Yeah it’s easy try it urself
It worked!!!!!! Just cancelled my appointment for the auto mechanic and saved the $160 and also took the $40 Freon back to Auto zone!! Thank you so much 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 wish I could send you a cash app or Venmo to say thank you !! My AC turned on instantly
@@rickeylee8296 nice great job!! Good saving!!!
In my Honda civic 2012, AC works but when I push "Max AC" button...it does not kick in. As a result...it takes lot longer to cool inside. What is the possible solution? Thanks.
It might not be an issue. When u put max ac the fan blows super flash but ac systym dosent get cool that quick and it takes longer but it could be low on freon
I have the same issue but before it stopped working, the ac was running non stop and the ac line had ice built up all over it. Not sure if that’s a clog some where or the relay.
Ok that’s somthing else not relay try reserving the systym I had issue like that where compressor ram all times wait yes it could be stuck relay anways start from swaping relay
I have a 2013 honda civic and there is no gas in my car i checked it low and high one but also no current passing on that cable so should i put gas first and see if ac working or does my car have any wiring issues? Please reply to me thank you so much
First u have to do ac service and use due to trace for leaks of it got no gas that means it leaked so and see if it activate after that other wise need more diagnostic
Question, why was the “MG clutch” fuse taken out as well? Do we need to replace that one if we’re replacing the relay
U don’t need to take it out u can just check the fuse it could be blown fuse but these both parts I always change fuse I do check it’s the basic parts
I have to try this got a 2008 Honda civic and haven’t had AC in two year I was just about to buy a compressor and change it but got to try this
Yup try it
Im having similar issue. 06 civic si. Ac blows hot. I put a new ac compressor. The correct one too.. cant remember if the oil was correct. I didnt dump n refill.. but before it worked with old one until the pulley froze and broke the belt.. so i swapped fog light and this relay. Nothing. I grounded the relay, the clutch turned on. But didnt vlow cold. Filled the line, kept saying it went to high in how much i added.. im at a loss. And i work on cars for a living.. also i did do a evaporator valve on hester core. Idk whay i did wrong.. n it worries me lol
Did u use ac machine to service when recharging? And dose the compressor come on
What if the relay is good? It seems to be clicking on and off anyway.
The clutch is engaging but no cool air.
Check to see if low side line gets cold? Update me?
I'm going to checkout the relays and fuses in the morning before I try freon recharge. System blows but it's not cold.
Yeah check relay and fuse first

@@RBTheMechanic cool, would you recommend doing it myself?
what about if the air is blowing warm?, honda civic 2009 , thank you
Dose the ac compressor engages? If yes … ur systym might be low on refrigeration and do ac service use dye to trace down any leaks
@@RBTheMechanic ok thank you, I 'll check
I appreciate you. I’m about to try this out
How if compressor won't turn and fan not working as well what could be the problem?
Well fan will only
Come on if ac works other wise it will come on at correct temp so u need to check for power fuse relay ground to see if it’s getting siginal need to do some dignostic
Hey man, super weird question.
In the canadian winter (0c or less) if I turn on heat, my HVAC turns OFF and my blower is set to MAX until my car heats up, then I can change my temps and blower to whatever I want.
On the flip side, my freon is filled, relay and fuse are fine, but my compressor will NOT turn on. It is not locked up or anything.
Could this be my thermostat?

Would anyone know if this is the reason why my Honda's AC works at some times. more often it works with cold engine and after about 10 minutes of driving, it blows warm air again. Next morning I start it up and I can hear the compressor going on & off and it blows cold, and again after driving for a while it stops. Evidently I have plenty of refrigerant and my compressor also works. I checked the AC fuse and it looks ok. It might just be a rely... I have a 2014 Honda Accord.
Did u check pressure? Do swap out relay some time it can cut off as it get hot

06 civic is cold when driving, but gets warmer when idling. Bad high or low pressure switch if fans, coolant and compressor clutch all working?
Mostlikely ur need to reservice the system how ever check for both radiator fan operation
@@RBTheMechanic Fans both work. I don't have a high/low gague, but it has enough 134a. It is still somewhat cold at idle. Perhaps the system needs a purge and re-filling? I added some more, but the pressure was too high. It kept shutting off the compressor
@@jaredronemus9601 how do u know without guages? And even with guages it can be faulty pressure. Only way to know u have enough u have to recover it all and scale it
@@RBTheMechanic I have a gauge for the low. Just not the high. I let off some of the 134a cause the compressor constantly kicked on and off. It would then get cold, just not ice cold. If I am idling in neutral, if I hit the gas, it starts to get colder. Maybe the pressure is still too high to stay cold just idling
The low pressure gauge was at 55psi. Much lower and it won't get cold at all
Excellent video. I have changed all fuses and relays. Nothing on the clutch. I jumped the the Freon sensor switch and the clutch came on for about 5 seconds only when I shut the car off and turn it back on. And that’s all I get. Any ideas
I have an 07 civic si. I watched your other video too. I’m going to try taking the washer out tomorrow to see if it does anything. I’m having a hard time find a new clutch replacement. I’m in New Hampshire this car isn’t very common here
When the clutch came on did the low ac line get cold? Did u check Freon pressure
@@RBTheMechanic it was. Only on for about 5 seconds. I put the gauge on it and it reads full. This whole setup has me scratching my head.
@@rubenreyes7901 5 seconds should show if it got cold or not
@@RBTheMechanic I’m going to give it another shot tomorrow and see if it gets cold. If it doesn’t. You think the compressor is junk?
My ac does get cool or warm , only puts out air that's coming from the outside. I'm not sure if it's the relay, but I'll try and replace it , thanks alot bro 😊
Yeah check it swap it
Thank you alright
Hi my Honda civic is 09 my Ac not working all fuse is five that do you think is. Sensor Ac oh or.
Did u swap the relay? And check to see if u got ac pressure. Put on the ac and see I both radiator fans come on that’s also indication that it got pressure and systm came on but do swap he relay!!!! Worth the big try
Hey - dumb question … which fuse are you replacing along with the AC Relay ???
Thank You
Ac clutch fuse
I have a 2008 civic lx. Blowing warm air. I've had it vacuumed and had freon added. What could be the problem? Thank you
Check this relay most common issue also check the fuse
My ac compressor kick on but not blowing cold air. I just charged the system. When yhe car is off im at about 50 psi but when i start the car the pressure goes to 0. Am i doing something wrong? Please help
It low or near empty prolly got hot air pressure do the service
Hi bro, im having this issue. Not sure if its the relay exactly, havent tried to change it yet. But you know, i have a have a honda civic 2006 fd. My ac turns on but it's not cooling sometimes then the next day it's cooling again. Not sure what's the problem. I can hear the compressor engaging when im turning it on. Went to a the garage to find out what's the issue and this guy told me that i need to change my radiator and one guy is telling me it's the condenser fan and that i have a leak. 🤡 would be great if you could here me out 😅
U might have low Freon need ac service and test for leaks
Or a blockage in the expansion value. You would need a pressure check.
I’m noticing my ac condenser fan isn’t kickin on ac only cold when driving I figured it might be fuse related
Well ur ac work but it might be low on Freon and u need to check the fan issue check fuse relay and power and ground to fan motor if - + is there then u had bad fan
@@RBTheMechanicThis might be my problem, now have somewhere to start.
Almost same thing, AC blows cold but randomly stops and blows hot air then starts blowing cold again. At idle parked/stopped it's cool but no longer cold.
@@0oJoe this could be possibility
The AC doesnt work in my sisters 2010 Civic. The blower motor doesnt appear to be working. I tested the 10 amp fuse under the dash, the blower fuse and relay under the hood and all good. I am not getting power at blower motor or transistor. If I jump the relay between 30 and 87, the blower turns on. Any ideas?
I also did the hvac diagnostic feature and it blinks 6 times. When I used the jumper between 30 and 87, the climate control dash unit changed the speed of the blower.
Well put all back togather put blower on high speed with engine running and then bang on the blower motor see if it start to run
@RBTheMechanic I ran power to blower and blower is fine. Hooked another blower up and it didn't work. No power to blower. Tested relay and fine but the fuse box has power to relay at 2 spots, 1 spot has ground but top left spot has no power or ground. Broken wire?
I would think that the top left spot 85 or 86 should have ground.
@@ptinker106 well I don’t think u need to check all that check basic first swap relay check fuse and pressure
my ac works but it doesn't work when it's hot. what can it be. it's also a 2007 civic
Usully that complaint means the ac systym is low on Freon recharge the ac system
What if the fans aren’t moving?
Could be no pressure in systm that would cut all system activity off
@@RBTheMechanic is there a way to test that and fix that myself? Do you have any videos on that? I appreciate your response so much!! 🙏🏽
@@GonzaloCorts there’s no test and fix I have to replace it it $11 for relay. And t do test on it will take so much time and test can be faulty some time it don’t do it’s job when it gets hot
My ac not cooling well in afternoon it cools in early morning and night but not good at aternoon when its more hot …. Is it also relay problem?
Do ac Freon pressure test reading on low side should be like 40 psi with engine running ac on
Seems like u need to reservice the system it would do this if Freon is low and is now able to give u cooling when sun is beaming
Sir I recently changed ac evaporator which was fully blocked and leaked after 2 days of fixing my ac is very good at early morning and evening. Can you tell me how much ac pipe should be cold it must be too cold like sweating with cold or mild cold is normal?
whats the name of the actual part i have to buy? i have a 2008 honda civic manual
Well did u do relay swap test? Confirm ac works then get new relay if it fixed the ac by swaping
ABS light turned on. Could it possibly be the same?
No u have to scan to see what code it gives u for abs system
Thanks! Have another problem, temperature goes full on gauge less than 5 mins from cold start. Is it the gauge?
@@peterechavez6363 u have to check if car fans works and make sure the cooling system is operation propperly
My ac doesnt turn on at all on certain days.. I noticed when it's really hot out. But when it's cool or at night my ac turns on and works perfect. Any idea?
Let’s put it this way ur ac dose turn on but on hot days u don’t feel any cold air it is not able to keep the cooling since it’s hot. So seems like it’s low Freon do a reservice on the system recover vaccum and recharge and do it propperly with ac machine
Hi I recently had my passenger mirror smashed off. It has stopped the air con and heated seats. Literally nothing turns on on the dashboard. Could this still be relay and fuse
There could had be shorted fuse circuit check fuse and relay swap it might not be related tho but try check all fuses with test light
I have a civic 2012, my ac goes off and on. Yesterday it stopped, today it is working. Could a faulty fuse be my problem?
It can be fault ac relay instead of fuse fuse will cut it off for good and never turn back on try the relay first
@@RBTheMechanic thank u!
@@Soulflwr1 did it work?
@@RBTheMechanic I haven't tried it yet.
@@Soulflwr1 ok
Thank you very much ! it solved the problem!!!!!
Nice good job
When I turn my air on the car acts like it wants to shut off and the air is blowing hot. This just started yesterday, would this help
Did u jam in froen in the systym?
