My AC isnt working...I turn it on and it blows warm air the fan works but my compressor doesnt kick in to start the AC ....the compressor is working ...I took it to honda and they said I need to replace the PCM ...... should i replace the PCM or should i have Aamco trace my electrical wires to see whats goin on or is that a waste of time

I would definitely get a second opinion. Honda is going to charge you near $2000 and it may not fix it. I've never heard of the ECM/PCM going bad make the A/C not work. I would start by jumping the A/C switch and/or relay.

Download the manual: https://www.civicforums.com/forums/1...e-updated.html There is a diagnostic for the A/C system and step-by-step diagnosis. Sorry, I should have told ya this first but, I was at the end of a long day.

So I am done trying to figure out what the problem is with my A/C a mechanic said he could put a toggle switch in and i could use it to operate my A/C instead of the regular A/C button ..... he says it perfectly ok and nothing will burn out in my car because it will go through the A/C relay its just a different switch to turn it on and off......is there anyone else on here who has ever had this done before
