02 Honda Civic door locks, a/c blowing hot air

Advise needed:
I have a 02 Honda Civic with a few resent probs:
1. My door locks does not automatically open when i disarm my vehicle with the remote
2. The a/c system blows room temp air (it's not getting cold)
3. House light not coming on when vehicle is off
4. Slow speed windscreen wiper speed not functioning (medium and fast works)
5. Hand brake light still on, on dash even though the hand brakes is down
6. Passenger window not functioning
Can anyone advise what these probs can be, I was thinking it can be the fuses or a sensor or something.

Thk for the responce, i search it, but this guy was talking about his park light on the passenger side.
I am guessing the Multiplex (MICU) controls many devices within the car. I will have to find an auto electrician to fix it.
If i continue to drive my vehicle like this, would other things start to malfunction?

The multiplex is contained inside the under dash fuse box. There are several connectors involved but still quite simple replacement.

Not sure of driveability or safety issues check all your lights outside.

This isn't something you would need to find an automotive electrician for, you just need to purchase a replacement part from Honda and have someone install it for you. Like CraigW said, its a simple change out.

Re: 02 Honda Civic door locks, a/c blowing hot air

Many thx guys, I got it repaired, it was a grey box under the dash, with a whole heap of connector on to it. The connector were all good as the Electrician check them them all, but the box itself seems to control no. 1 - 5 of my probs. No. 6 is my window motor gone bad. So my A/C back in a gear, that thing is so important, my word!
Sorry guys, these changes might be easy for you'll but I really am not verse in car repairs nah but the electrician was very good. The box cost me a pretty penny though.

Re: 02 Honda Civic door locks, a/c blowing hot air

Hello Guys
There were the same problems on my 2001 Civic

A/C does not work, brake light on. Remotr key does not work...
I changed MICU for another one.
All previous problems disappeared BUT
Now I have PARKING blocked.
There is no signal to solenoid to unlock when I press break pedal

So
How to re-programm new MICU? Or something wrong with him?
Thanx in advance

Thanx Guys
I have got it.
It was no any problems with brake light.
But it was 01 pack for manual (standard) transmission. It does not have shift lock/unlock.
I change it for 02 pack for automatic and now its ok.
Thanx
