Thank you so much man! Everything worked just as you described in your video. The A/C compressor on my 2013 Honda Accord was not engaging. Refrigerant was fully charged and all related fuses checked OK. After swapping the relay, the AC compressor comes on and off as it should and AC works great again! Great fix!!! Thanks a million!!!
RB - I do have another issue with my Honda. I did a lot in attempt to fix it, but so far no luck. I thought you would find it intriguing :-) If you happen to have a take on attacking this, any advice would be appreciated! My issue is described in detail here: www.hondaaccordforum.com/forum/general-tech-help-7/wipers-wont-turn-off-65707/
Nice jobbb!!
Where can you buy the relay?
@@priscillacatalina1065 he said in the video....at the dealer
Good video. I always pull up your videos when I have a problem with my 2014 Honda accord.
Nice msg me if I don’t have a video on somthing I still can guide u through a repair
@@RBTheMechanicI have a 2014 accord as well and my ac doesn’t blow cold anymore just hot..could be the same issue?
@@edgarcardenas6823Same here, It was still working last summer, now it's not working, I think it's also low on refrigerant, cause last summer it was barely cooling, but still worked.
Great easy simple to to follow video, great job brother!!
Thank you man it was that fucking relay , I got Ac now 🎉🎉
Nice good job
You’re the best! Just saved me $700 bucks 🔥
Nice glad u found my video
Good info RB , thanks. 👊🏿
hey man i got a 2017 honda accord same in the bud but the on/off button on the climate control won’t turn on, no fan on no nothing
Check alll of ur fuses could be bad fuse for the control panel and check fuses for blow motor and everything else
@@RBTheMechanic thanks, i replaced the mg clutch and still nothing but i’ll check out the other fuses and let you know in a little
@@jumperryt4936 check pressure also
TO BRING UP THE AIR CONDITIONING..PRESS FRONT AND IT WILL BLAST COLD AIR AND IT WILL ADJUST ITSELF..THAT'S WHAT WORKED FOR ME...2017 LX SEDAN
Press front ?
press front of what ???
So I have a 2015 accord and my fans stopped working almost entirely. No AC coming out, fan speeds not responding. Changed the fuse and transitor, nothing. Next I went under the glove box and removed the plastic panel to get access to the motor thing. Banged it with my palm and to my utter surprise it came back on and my climate control system is back to normal. Could road vibrations really be the cause?
I think the blower motor is jamming up not the road. I would replace that before it burns others things with high load
Honda Accord 2016 sports.Tried swapping the fuse and relay. AC light doesn't turn on, AC doesn't get cold. What might be the problem? Tyia
Check the pressure in ac system
I'm looking at a 2015 Honda Accord that's for sale tomorrow. The listing says everything's excellent except the AC doesn't work.
40 years ago I bought a Mazda RX-3 for $350, because the owner thought it needed a clutch and pressure plate.
She was quoted $365 for a new clutch at the dealership and she didn't want to put money in it.
It was just the clutch slave cylinder and it only cost me $6 to fix it.
The Honda has high mileage but I have a bluedriver scanner, and it's uber cheap.
Hoping the AC is an easy fix.
There was a recall.
U never know it’s a bad relay!! Lol
@@RBTheMechanic
The seller is wishy-washy and he's showing the listing on marketplace as Pending, so I still don't know if I'll get this one.
He could have had money in hand yesterday. 🙄
@@OtayBuckwheat ok
I have AC problem in my 2013 accord. It would blow cold air on first start of the car then after some driving, it would blow hot air. I have to restart the car a few times before it will blow cold air again. I have this problem for year. I tried everything.
Turn out, it a loose connector under the front bumber. I reconnected it and solved my problem.
I would do ac service could be low on refrigeration
My 17 accord blows hot air do you can it still be a relay or fuse ? Or would you say I lost my Freon ? Or bad compressor
Check basics first fuse and relay also Freon pressure
Very good direction
Thank you
Great video on potential source of issues. I have a CRV and the size of the low pressure inlet is odd and I cannot find a R134a adapter that fits it. Is there a separate size for the CRV. I tried about 5 different solutions at the car parts store.
I just did ac compressor on crv if it’s any help u can take a look here’s a link ua-cam.com/video/GtlCQHyDxZw/v-deo.html. What year is ur crv
My ac won't work when its over 100F outside. Anything below that the air blows cold.
Ok u might be low on Freon so check or service you ac system do it correct with ac machine recover vacuum and then add correct amount oil and refrigeration
I just bought a used 2017 civic I’ll have to check it out
Why would a radiator go out at 80,000...how would you know b4 time
U can’t know radiator or condenser?
My 2014 accord coupe’s ac compressor isn’t engaging when I have the a/c on. It only blows hot air. I flushed out the a/c and recharged the refrigerant which is how I found out that my compressor isn’t turning on. My coworker is telling me that since I ran out of refrigerant my compressor turned itself off and that I need to jump start my compressor in order to get it to turn back on since I recharged my a/c. However my other coworker is advising I check for a blown fuse/relay. I’m not sure what to do since I’m hearing different things, any advice on what I should look into doing?
No such thing jumpstarting it. Check ur pressure again also fuse and relay swap it see where that take it
Replaced the relay now fuse is blowing instantly and the ax compressor not turning on at all. Could the compressor be bad and causing the fuse to blow ?
It might be the problem disconnect the compressor and see if fuse blows
Hey, my ac is filled + they said my relays are fine. The guy did notice my big fan under hood isn’t moving. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
What the issue fan or ac not working ? Don’t go by what they say swap ur relay and check ac pressure those are basics. There’s no way they can tell u it’s full in order to check service is required. And charge is $190 so they can even check it free it would cost them
I got a 2016 accord the ac comes on and off currently doesn't blow no hot or cold air I set it to the highest setting and still says low controls dont work kicks on randomly think it might need freon not sure
It might be bad control unit
Alright, I replaced the ac clutch relay. The a/c was working just fine for about 10 minutes. And then when I took it out for a drive it started blowing hot air and then cold air intermittently. The car has been sitting for a 1.5 yrs since the pandemic started, do you think that the freon level is low now? Its a 2015 accord with 68k miles on it.
That’s exactly what I think it is low Freon pressure with mixture of hot air pressure
@@RBTheMechanic
Raja Same thing is happening to me did you ever fix your issue? @rajasandhu7016
Hi brother, can you advise us the location of the external temperature sensor for my 2015 Honda Accord and it does not show the temperature, please help
The ambian temperature sensor is located front of the car down front of ac condenser take it look u will see it might be visible from the front drill
I have a 2016. Honda accord and the air just randomly stopped working. It turns on but nothing comes out
Did u check ur blower motor get high speed
No I didn’t not yet
The place where the coolant goes is black too
Good job. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
My 2013 Honda CRV AC suddenly stops blowing or just gradually just peters out, only to kick back in after being turned off and left off for at least 30 mins or so.
I have a 15 lx accord 2.4 and got around 100 on the high and low side , swapped relays and comp won’t engage both fans come on , I know there’s the right amount of Freon and haven’t found any leaks and have power at my comp has me shaking my head , checked my fuses too
Starting to think maybe the comp is shot , if anyone has any ideas please let me know ? Thank u
Check fuse and power to ac compressor the fans kick on mean systym activates
Damn fire hydrant pump when thru one and now my ac turns and I hear the fan but not cold air coming thru the vents ? Any recommendations
Did u check ur ac pressure in system also check fuse and relays to start off
How many times you going to tell us to check the fuse
How many time did u count??? No matter how many times I say it wount be enough ur mechanic will end up changing ur fuse with ac compressor that’s is the reason I keep stating it
2012 honda civic ac compressor not on, until removing ac pressure switch connector. Air not cold..?
I’m sorry what’s going on with ac? What u told me didn’t make sense when u take out pressure sensor connect it suppose to shut down
Agree..yet compressor would not come on, until i disconnected the pressure switch mounted right front.. along radiator / condenser. (Reachable with hand under, at panel opening.) And compressor stayed on after reconnecting wire connector. But no cool air inside.
@@edgaro8905 I have to look in to this to see why this would happne. Did u check relay
Replaced relay.. noticed 4 prong-- 2 hot, 1 ground. Ohm other wire to pressure switch and compressor..both open.
Wires at pressure switch.. none (3) hot or at compressor (3) connector.
Until i disconnected, then compressor on, but no cool.
Lookn for a pressure gauge to ck high side.
Think Compressor not pumping ?
Problem defies logic, scan (bluedriver) says only problem is throttle position sensor
Hi there. my accord ac is working fine when the car is in running mode but when it is in idle mode compressor making on off click sound. it is very disturbing. is it the same issue? which i need to update?
Well the issue u got is either low Freon or the compressor not buliypressure when on highway the rpm is high so the compressor is working faster and it’s pumping good even if it low on Freon till pump quick enough so start with reservice ac system before u change any components
the clutch on will turn for a moment then it will stop, i already replace the relay an fuse. what could it be?
I have a question. I own the exact same vehicle. I noticed that the fans come on while my ac is running which is normal however when I have the ac off and vehicle is running for a long time the fans don’t come on. My temperature gauge is always at half which is the optimum operating temperature and I dont see the needle going towards red or overheating. But shouldn’t the fans for this car come on when I run the engine for a while? Is that normal for this type of vehicle? Someone told me that this type of Honda has a very good cooling system and that the fans rarely come on. Can you say anything about that based on your experience working on this car?
Zeekwayne well as long as ur car temp is half way your good ... if u live in cold area your fans prolly Will barely come on cuz the wind will cool it down as your driving on road dosent need the fan to keep it cool some times I get cars over heating but they don’t over heat on highway because the force of the wind dose the cooling job...
Hey man, quick question. I haven’t been able
To find much online and I’m trying to avoid a diagnostic fee at the dealers. My Honda Accord 2017 blows low until I turn it up to near max, like the lower levels of ac 1-3 all blows the same which is barely at all. What would be the problem?
I’m not Shute what u mean … it’s not getting cold?
@@RBTheMechanic so it gets cold, the temperature isn’t an issue. It’s the fan speed, I basically have to turn it to near max fan speed to get a decent air flow, if that makes sense. (For instance if there is a fan speed from 1-5. Between 1-3 it all blows the same which is very low and then 4 it’s finally blows harder. There’s no in between.
@@khoreydakers1905 oh ok well check ur cabin filter and check to see if there isent anything dropped inside the turbine of blower motor however blocked up cabin filter will decrease the flow check that as well
Frigg… my relay wont come out. I’m ruining the cover using needle nose pliers. Any suggestions?
Do these have pins that lock them in there?
No they are tough to get out I broke lot of those wiggle it side to side
When I start my 2015 honda, the a/c works and blows cold area and then after 2-5 minutes it stops working and starts blowing normal fan air. Do you know what could be the issue? When I turn off and on the a/c the compressor kicks on but no cold air.
Might be low Freon in the system have it service to begin with and also put in new ac mg clutch relay
Did you find out the issue raja
This is crazy. I have been looking into 9th gen accords as a new longterm daily. But with the oil consumption issues, now this AC problem. Idk.
Edit: my 07 Camry CE, base model 5 speed manual hit 316k miles problem free. Till it got totaled. Sucks because I really love how the 9th gen accords look. My gfs 07 Civic Si had the same problem with her AC, it was the relay. But even with that fixed, it takes a long time for it to get cold.
Vinskikauski Amourelius yeah my friend had oil problems we fought the dealer to Maxx they replace the oil rings on pistons now less than 10k miles later same issue
RB The Mechanic thats crazy man. Guess ill look for another manual trans camry. And to think, I was about to buy someones 2014 Accord Sport 6MT with 93k miles for $12k cash. Ill save that and spend half that on another used camry.
Thats strange, never heard of that with the 9th gens. My v6 with 161k doesnt consume a drop of oil. However I did just start having the ac issue but other than that my 13 coupe manual has been great for the miles it has
Amerikai, well the oil consumption seems to be with the 4cyl DI engines. Not sure about the V6 since they are port injected plus you have the VCM feature which returns great mpg at fwy speeds. If the Accord sedan was offered with a V6 manual i would definitely consider that.
@@Hakuna_My_Tatas Actually only the auto v6 accords got VCM, the manual versions like mine don't have it lol. But yeah thats strange that the 4 cyl ones have that issue because that engine is very similar to the 7th and 8th gen only with DI and my 7th gen 4 cyl didnt have that problem either and it was higher mileage too
Do you know where I can purchase a good A/C Relay? For a 2015 Honda Accord
Jesus Monreal best is dealer but comparable u can get it from any parts store DENSO is good brand you can even find it on amazon
RB The Mechanic Thanks! I was able to find one on Amazon. Great video btw!
I have a 2014 Honda Accord Ex 2.4lx and my ac doesn’t work but hot air is coming out but clutch isn’t spinning so do i have to replace the clutch or the fuse?
Cedric Gordon fchecj your fuse and the relay u can swap it with fan relays also check if there freon in the system u can push on the pin to see if pressure shoots out
Thank you!
thank you very much for this video
Jesse Flores no problem please subscribe also subscribe to my rc channel the name is rcusa201
Question I have a 2013 civic the A/C wont work but later work like nothing, this happens twice already. I want to troubleshoot this but I don’t know how to do it since the AC is working now. Not even know what may cause the problem any ideas?
Jose Rivera this can be bad relay some times relays don’t work or heat up try changing relay first thing and hopefully it donsent occur again
RB The Mechanic i will thank you for your time🙏🏻
Jose Rivera no worries bro ... u can subscribe and always ask me anything let me know how this turn out ... also got another channel u can check it out here’s a link ua-cam.com/channels/vqsPzqAZfVv_gjBYUFqNdg.html
My 2018 honda accord blows cold only passenger side driver side is not cold
Recharge the system it might be low add dye to find leaks
I hope it's just my relay...dont wanna spend 500 on a part 😔
Yes
I have a different issue than what is in this video. I have a 2015 Honda Accord EX-L 4 cylinder. I have a FCW System failed on my screen. I went to the gas station turned the car off and gased up. Then when I tried to start her up the FCW system failure came on and it would not turn over. What could be causing this to happen?
What do u mean it would not turn over? Like it wouldn’t start? And type this is utube search u will find my video on the one that says fCE. Fcw rb the mechanic
@@RBTheMechanic Yes it would not start. It sounds normal trying to start up but just when you think it will start it doesn't.
@@RBTheMechanic I see your video that says ECW but not FCW.
@@loganmannix5271 scan the car see if the scan tool communicate with abs moduel? If it turns on to pop up all lights and go crazy there is same issue
@@loganmannix5271 so it cranks? But not start did u go low on gas?
If there’s no Freon will the ac compressor still turn on?
Jim_G EK9 no u have to check if it got freeon
no
I have a 2016 Honda Accord, my R-134A is full, my AC. Blows hot sometimes and sometimes cold. It blew hot earlier, I turned it off, back on, and it blew cold. Do you know what that could be? Expansion valve? Leak? Actuator?
Rich H it might be bad relay try swapping it that would be first thing I would try after that u need to check power to ac compressor when it don’t work
My car does the same thing! Did u got it fix and what is it?
Tina S check ur relay and fuse
Do you need to disconnect the battery before removing the fuse or relay?
no
@@BonerHornbuckle lol, As the Video itself it's COMPLETE JOKE..same with the comments 👏😜😆 1-2-3-4 -5 -6 -7 LOL
If u had to ask that, u shouldn’t try to fix your car.
Hello thank you for the video, I have a 2017 Honda Civic with 2.0L engine, my ac fuse keeps blowing, as soon as I replace it with the car running it blows immediately. If the car sits over night and I put a good fuse in it will not blow for 10-15 min and ac blows cold, once I take it for a drive and it revs up the fuse blows, any thoughts on what it could be blowing fuse?
Change the relay it could be faulty relay. If that don’t work get it to a point where it blows immediately and then disconnect the one wire connector to ac compressor and retry it if it dosent blow then u have short in ac compressor but do do a further diagnostic in wiring
What relay is it here ? After the fuse blows in 5 min if I go to replace immediately after the fuse will blow instantly, I have not changed the relay it’s not labeled in under my fuse box cover like your video
@@jackscrodd4475 it should tell u MG CLUTCH
Check this video might be same ua-cam.com/video/P9NJS_pBWko/v-deo.html
Hey I have a 2016 civic and when I turn on the AC. It’s not engaging. Do you what’s wrong with?

point the phone at it ill tell ya
Yea I did with your lady and but she like it dry lmao

Good info thanks 🙏
Ivan Pena thank you please subscribe
thank u sir
I tried this and sadly it didn’t work, it doesn’t appear I have a leak anywhere and my system holds refrigerant, so I’m hoping it’s a bad low pressure switch causing it to not run. I had the entire AC system replaced so I have my doubts about the parts but we’ll see
Dose ur ac compressor come on? Check to see if ur compressor engages have some one put ac switch on and off
Tanks bro
Did it work?
thank you for the information, my last resort is to swap the relays, i will update you
Ok yup let me know
Swapped relays I did not work. So I checked the fuses, relays, and my low side to add refrigerant was in the red I guessing it’s reading high
@@dontnojack42 yeah could be bad pressure
@@RBTheMechanic do you think its the low pressure switch ?
@@dontnojack42 I doubt that did u check to see if ac compressor clutch engages and what is pressure reading? If u have a way to read that it would give me an idea
Subscribed, i like you
Thank you.....
Prandi Pitamber no problem please subscribe also check out and subscribe to my other channel the name is rcusa201
I have a 2014 Accord V6 I change the compressor coil and the relay now it only works when I take off the battery terminal and put it back on
Ur not diagnosing the system propperly check ac pressure if u need to reserviced the system pressure can be fault air pressure or too much and air will expand with hot temp that’s why I always recommend clear all doubt recover vaccum and recharge the system to be sure anyways. Toooo much pressure ac will cut off to little it will not come on even if it work it will blow hot with air pressure anyways start with confirmation of propper recharge
Soo what if it’s not the relay or fuse ughhhh😩
Check ur Freon on to see if it has pressure it maybe have leak and it will not work without pressure also the ac pressure switch can be bad. When u put ac on dose both radiator fans come on?
@@RBTheMechanic ok I might have to get the Freon recharged then umm no I don’t think my radiator fans were coming on at all when I was messing with the ac on button
@@Kev506 ok it might have leaked check it if it’s empty charge the system with due to trace the leaks
I have the same problem , its relay and its not fuse, i fill with ac fluid 500gr as i have read its enough , right now i dont really know what to do
My ac is not blowing at all
No air at all? That blower motor issue I would try high speed and bang on the motor it might come on
Do NOT EVER buy parts from the dealer! $40 for a relay?? Nope! They are around $10 anywhere else but the dealer. Instead of the name dealership, should be called stealershyt. (Steal ur shyt)
Yeah I pay 12-16
@@RBTheMechanic hey thank you so so much for your video! Bcuz of you, I finally fixed my A/C today! I replaced the relay a month ago but it didn’t fix anything. I didn’t know to change the blower fuse. I’ve been trying to learn how to fix my car for all things that come my way and no videos were helpful for me until I watched you.
