Ford A/C :: 2002 F350 - Compressor Will Turn Off For Several Minutes Then Turn On
Single air compressor pressure switch issue. New switch installed still same problem. When hot outside (90) compressor will turn off for several minutes then turn on. System blows cold when running with pressure 35/190. If I jump the pressure switch on the accumulator it runs full time fine no issues. Connect the switch and it will drop out while still running 35/190.
View 2 RepliesHonda - Cr-v - Clutches - Airconditioning :: 2002 - AC Compressor Plate Fell Off
While driving my 2002 Honda CRV (155000 miles) to work yesterday, I noticed the AC was working intermittently. Soon enough, I heard a loud clunk under the car and noticed a part had fallen into the street. I circled back and picked it up. After a bit of research I figured out it was the AC Compressor clutch plate. After doing more research I noticed that early Honda CRVs are known for having AC problems - and mine is not the first clutch plate to have fallen off.
My questions are as follows:
Is there any harm in (trying) to reinstall the clutch plate?
Does the fact that my clutch plate fell off mean something else is wrong (e.g., the compress has frozen up)?
If the compressor is bad does 'black death' always occur?
Finally, if I am going to replace the compressor. Do you recommend I just get an AC kit (compressor, condenser, drier, etc.)
I know this isn't an easy repair, but I think I can handle it with my father. That old fart can fix anything!

4. The cabin filter is new.
5. There is enough refrigerant.

View 3 RepliesHonda - Cr-v :: 2002 - No Sound From Starter When Turn The Key
After the CRV has been idle overnight, when I turn the key to start the car, NO sound comes from the starter -- not a pop, not a clunk, not a whir, not a wheeze. All the interior electricals work fine (radio, dashboard lights, etc.). If I repeat the process 3 or 4 (or 5 of 6) times with increasing panic, I sometimes hear a fizzing sound (sort of like frying bacon) for half a second before the starter engages and the engine turns over. Naturally, I can't reproduce the problem at the dealer, who rightly doesn't want to commit to any repairs (especially after the dealership dropped a screw into the engine at 35K miles and had to buy us a new motor!). Other CRV owners appear to have encountered this problem, but the on-line forums are sickeningly devoid of answers. Tracing the problem from ignition switch to starter, what is the likelihood that this is a defective relay in the ignition switch? A defective relay somewhere else? A defective starter solenoid? Or just a worn out starter? How to make the diagnosis?
View 4 RepliesCivic - Honda :: 2002 - Horrid Smell Intermittently When Turn On The AC / Heater
We bought our 2002 Honda Civic new and have maintained it exactly as specified. Intermittently when we turn on the AC/heater we get a horrid smell, sometimes like dirty socks, sometimes like vomit, sometimes like damp basement. We recently had the cabin air filter changed. It doesn't happen every time we turn the AC/heater on, but enough that it can be very irritating!
View 2 RepliesStarting - Honda - Cr-v :: 2002 - Takes 2 Times Turn Over To Start Engine
My 2002 Honda CRV has had occasional problems starting over the years i.e. takes 2 times to start engine. But lately it is struggling more to start i.e., engine turns over but you can hear it struggling to start i.e. sounds like dead battery but in fact battery is brand new. Now it can take 3 turns to start and this morning it took 5 tries. The problem is no mechanic can find out what is wrong i.e. starter, fuel line, electrical or what? because it always starts when in the shop. I have even taken it to the Honda dealer and they could not find the problem. This is a random problem but seems to be getting worse and happening more often. I am worried I will be stuck somewhere when the car does not start AT ALL one day.

View 7 RepliesHonda - Accord :: 2003 - AC Went Out / Bad Compressor
AC went out on 2003 Honda Accord with 120k miles. Mechanic checked and found bad compressor. Do they usually go bad after 8 years or that mileage? (I live in humid hot South, so AC gets used a lot.) Putting in a used compressor costs $470 with labor, 6 month guarantee, versus new compressor for $700 with labor, 12 month guarantee. Since it's the start of summer, a 12 month guarantee doesn't much more. But will used compressor last for another 5-8 years or 100k miles? When new (or originally in the car) how long do they usually last?
View 3 RepliesCivic - Honda :: 1996 - A/C Compressor Smoking
I just bought a 96 civic. The seller said he used the ac last year, after they charged it, with no problems. The ac was not cold now. I have the filling cable that only goes on the low pressure side. We turned the car and the ac on. I noticed that he had been driving the car with the ac turned on even though it was not cold. I connected the hose and it read 0 psi. It began to fill and you could tell it took some Freon nicely, maybe an ounce or 2, then, the compressor behaved like it was working real hard, the engine began working hard, the belt squealed for a minute, then stopped, the compressor began to smoke. The smoke was coming from between the compressor housing and the pulley. It smelled like the “I just burnt up my engine smell”, shortly after I began filling the low pressure read in the yellow range of the gauge. It did take some Freon in the normal range. I would like to mention that last summer I had used the pag 100 oil charge which some had been sitting in the fill hose all winter, don’t know if this makes a difference but I thought I should mention it

He was thinking I made now need to take it to a Honda dealership and maybe there is a code they need to enter.

View 3 RepliesCivic - Honda :: 2007 - New Compressor Whistling?
So I had my AC go out in my 2007 Honda Civic coup and being a cheap guy, didn't want to pay the mechanic 1200-1300 bucks to fix it and all the peripherals (condenser, desiccant, expansion valve, hoses.....) So I bought all of the stuff myself (Reman compressor) and took it to a mechanic buddy that owed me a favor. We took out the compressor and checked the movement of the pulley wheel and it moved freely. He informed me that it was just the clutch on the compressor that was bad and the rest of the stuff didn't need replacing.
So we swapped out the new for the old compressor put it all back together charged it and glorious cold air blew in abundance. Once I hit the road, I noticed a whistling sound that occurs while accelerating through about any speed. It is not a belt squeak and it's not the "whistling between 40-50 mph" like the service bulletin on the 2006-2008 CR-V. It occurs as low as 20 mph and up to 80 mph. My questions are these: is this a symptom of a problem which needs attention? and: What did my buddy do wrong?
Honda - Odyssey :: 2006 - AC With No Cold Air / Compressor And Clutch?
My 2006 Honda Odyssey lost the a/c last week. No cold air. After troubleshooting myself, I took it to the shop I use and they came up with it being the compressor clutch. But you can just replace the clutch, so a new compressor. My question is... What's a good price for this repair? In this vehicle the compressor replacement requires the alternator, etc... To come out first before you can even get to the compressor. So, I'm not really excited enough about it to do it myself. Which I think could, except for the discharging the refrigerant.

View 2 RepliesFord A/C :: 2001 7.3 - Compressor Won't Turn On
My AC stopped working, not sure when as we hadnt used it since last fall and I tried it once over the winter to keep it lubed up.
Tried so far:
Pressure switch on the evaporator - wont turn on the compressor. Had the truck running with AC running(warm air) jumped the connector with no result.
Air clutch spacing - currently at .032 is this too much? If I read it right, it should be .020? Would that cause it to not engage at all? What would my next step be to try?
