You saved my 4th of July travel trip - I looked under the hood and switched my functioning horn relay with the a/c one and boom the compressor turned on blowing cold air - went to the parts story bought a relay for $12 bucks and now I’m driving in comfort - thanks a ton for this video
Man I've been driving around without air, I watched like 4 mins of this video and the hardest part of the fix was opening the hood because the relay was just loose.... Thank you.
Dude, this was exactly what I needed. YT needs more helpful, concise-yet-informative how-to vids. You obviously know your stuff. Keep up the good work.
Thanks brother. A little tappy tap on the relay snapped the compressor shut and now I know which little bastard needs replacing. Saved me a lot of time figuring out which one to bother.
you literally just saved me hundreds of dollars. was able to swap in my horn relay for a temporary fix and have a replacement coming for 8 bucks. thank you for this simple, straightforward video. i never comment on videos but this, i had to!
AC on my 09 Element starting blowing warm last week. I swapped the Horn relay in the engine control fuse box with the AC Compressor relay. Now I have cold AC and no horn. I'll wait a day for a new horn relay in order to have a cool car during the coming week of temps in the upper 80s. Great job Lehew Tech! Nailed it!
Thank you so much! My 2004 Honda CRV issue was like yours where the second fan wasn't turning. My fan wasn't as tight as yours though. When I turned the blade with my finger it turned easily. What kind of bulb is that? I want to get one to test the power.
Car battery continues to drain. Replaced battery and alternator. I'm told the relay could be draining the battery even when the car is not running. Going to try to replace it and see what happens. Cheap place to start
Check to see if your compressor stays engaged after car is turned off Unplug and plug any battery cable and while cars off and listen for compressor kick on and off while car is off
So I had the compressor replaced, worked great for a day or two then it stopped working along with the cooler fan. I replaced the cooler fan, the relays and the compressor still won't engage. Is there anything else it could be? The battery is strong, the cooler fan works, ac pressure is good I believe, had it checked. I was thinking maybe the condenser. If the condenser is bad and I replace it is there a chance the compressor starts working again or is it dead for good once it stops turning? Thanks
@@lolinpinguin still don't know for sure but I'm guessing either just the new used compressor clutch failed or the system is clogged or a combination of the two. I'm too broke and car has other issues. It might have a slight head gasket leak so I'm just going to repair the muffler and call it a day until I have more money.
great vid! So I tried the bulb trick and and swapped relays with the horn. Definitely no power to the relay. Where does the power come from? The switch on the dash? Fuse are good.
Awesome I fixed my fan. Now my compressor will not engage. I tried the light bulb test and I don’t get any power from solenoid box test like you showed. Please help!
Why would my green 30 fuse keep blowing after I've changed the compressor and the ac condenser ?? It blows and the compressor kicks off.. but the fan still works.
My green 30a fuse keeps blowing when I turn AC on. Both fans appear to be dead and relays are good compressor kicks on. I wonder if the temp switch is the problem...
hi big bro my parking light is not coming on , previously the owner connected many load to the parking line for fog light , now it not turning on again pls help what should i check
My ac isn't working but the compressor is on, I've replaced a broken cooling fan so they both work now, however when I connect a refrigerant gauge it goes to the red 🤷♂️
Hi mi Honda Element 2007 is not working on the A/C recycle air function... Light on panel turns on but the outside smell is getting inside the car. Can you help me on a clue to fix this please? Thanks
Have you checked to see if the condenser engages? I have the same issue and also found out that my AC fan doesnt turn on at all either so I bought the AC fan and radiator fan to replace those (another video shows that) and now I am thinking I need a new condenser as well.... bah

When your AC stops working in 120° weather...this was very helpful!!!This guy is the man!!!

I'll wait a day for a new horn relay in order to have a cool car during the coming week of temps in the upper 80s. Great job Lehew Tech! Nailed it!
For me it was the 10a fuse! Thanks!!!
Thank you! I switched the horn relay with the AC compressor relay and that did the trick. Just need a new one, cheap fix!
The relay was the culprit, was thinking we were in for a new compressor, thank you!!!
The relay swap for the horn and compressor was CLUTCH! My compressor actually works but that relay was out!! Got damn!! Thanks!!
Your CRV looks just like an Element.
Yea it is an element but I called it a CRV for some reason
Thanks for the video, helped convince me to dig out the flashlight and check it all over - found the AC relay was rattling with loose parts inside!
Thank you for being succinct and thorough. I’ll be back next time my ele breaks.
This video just helped me fix my AC for $15! You rock, thank you!
This was so helpful. The horn relay swap solved my issue. Cold air is back!
Great job! The best video I have ever seen on youtube!
Thank you! Mine was the relay under the hood! 2006 Element

Question! My 03 element, to get the ac to work, I have to hit the dashboard several times and then it starts cooling, any suggestions... thanks
I saw a Scotty kilmer video where he said there are actuators under the dash you can unstick by hitting them

Great video
I was looking for the blower video for the element on your page but wasn’t able to find it ?
Thanks! Here is the video for the blower: ua-cam.com/video/5Rog5Bhb4Lo/v-deo.html

Saved the day, mine ended up being the relay. Thanks bud

My 30
Amp keeps blowing . Replace n condenser fan works. Then I blow the 30 . Do u think it could be the ac condenser fan that’s bad ? Thanks
CRV ir Element?????
Liked and Subscribed!! You saved me time and money, thank you.
Thanks, I’m having an issue where the ac works intermittently. I’m thinking it’s the relay. Will check it out in the morning. Thanks for the tips.
Great job. Helped out alot.
Why would my green 30 fuse keep blowing after I've changed the compressor and the ac condenser ?? It blows and the compressor kicks off.. but the fan still works.
My green 30a fuse keeps blowing when I turn AC on. Both fans appear to be dead and relays are good compressor kicks on. I wonder if the temp switch is the problem...
Relay it was! Many many thanks.
Tremendous!

I am having issues with my fan, when I turn the ac on the fan start cycling about every 10 seconds, any advice would be appreciated
My ac isn't working but the compressor is on, I've replaced a broken cooling fan so they both work now, however when I connect a refrigerant gauge it goes to the red 🤷♂️

Thank you!! Great video!!
Perfect vid. My A/C went out in here in FL so I didn't have much time do dick around. Found the problem first try!
nice! make more Honda Element videos!
Mine is doing something weird the AC is on and charged but its not blowing out cold air it stays warm
Have you checked to see if the condenser engages? I have the same issue and also found out that my AC fan doesnt turn on at all either so I bought the AC fan and radiator fan to replace those (another video shows that) and now I am thinking I need a new condenser as well.... bah
Thank you! This is perfect
Very informative,thanks
Very helpful, yes, thank you very much
Element - not CRV (He said "CRV") 🤷🏼♂️
that is not a CRV,... it was an Element
Created Film that’s what I was thinking too!
