    THANK YOU for this video. Turns out my 2007 Honda Accord just needed a $44 relay to kickstart the AC compressor. Pretty sure the dealership would have tried to sell me a new compressor altogether for hundreds of $$$s, had I taken it there. So grateful for your diagnostics & bless you for this channel!

    I have a 2010 Acura RL, switched out bot the AC relay and 40A fuse relating to the AC. For some dumb reason i replaced my cabin filter (it was dirty anyways). Low pressure is where it should be according to the manual. However it keeps blowing warm/hot air. It's about 95-100 F over here where I live so i can't tell the difference but it's not cold. Once I try jumping the switch, can I just pop connection back on the switch? Or if the compressor works, is that an indicator that I could have a bad switch and would have to service the whole thing and pump the freon out?

    I'm not a mechanic, and I'm not crazy either but, I am confused. 1) What "pin" was pushed @4:21 - 4:24 2) is(n't) the compressor the inch to inch and a half belt that's turning? Or, is it the thin metal part on the side of the wide belt...because my wide belt is moving...and it moves weather the ac is on or off. 3) What were you doing with/to the copper part before you stuck it in the plug? Do you ride around with the copper in or, will it work from that point? Thanks

    Thanks for the video. I have a 2003 4 cyl that is a 5 speed and about 5 years the entire system was replaced and all of a sudden it just stopped blowing cold air and I am clueless. All of the fuses are good, the A/C compressor is getting power and turns on, but just keeps blowing warm air. Both the cabin and intake filters are clean and almost new. Even though the compressor is turned on, is it possible one of the relays is bad? I hooked up an 3 way automotive air conditioning diagnostic manifold gauge and both the high and low pressure seems good and completely filled with freon.

First day they charged it, it blew cold ac for like 30min then went warm, then the next day, same thing, then 2 days later, just blows warm air. Checked relays and fuses, no issues there. The compressor does not engage at all. Going to try the final thing of bypassing the pressure switch, and testing power to compresor. How would I know exactly if it’s the compressor that went bad?

    I need some help, I have a 2006 honda accord v6. Same problem. I just got the car and recharged the system. Then 2 days later the compressor went out due to over heating. I replaced the compressor and the fan. Turned it on and the compressor blew the valve and leaked everything out. Replaced drier, compressor (again) evap core expansion valve both lines, pressure switch, literally everything in the system is new. Worked 1 day and blew it off again. I just spent 2000.00 on the AC and I'm at a loss. Is there anything you can think of? All fuses work relays everything. I thought it was clogged lines that's why I replaced everything and it still blew. Why is it building that much pressure? Could a short in the wire cause it to send a high pressure signal causing it to blow out?

Going to jump the pressure switch tomorrow and see if the compressor gets power.. I’m so frustrated with the car. I also have pressure because the car was properly serviced with a machine and they put dye and Freon in it.. the clutch seemed to have an issue engaging. I’m praying it’s not the compressor.

Now I went in to start driving and tried turning it on and the controls for the AC don’t do anything, I can’t press them but the AC does not turn on. 😓 I know almost nothing about cars to be honest or how to troubleshoot.

    I did swap it and nothing worked I replaced both relays in the engine bay and both 7.5 fuses the one in the engine bay and the inside one by the driver. I did a little research The compressor up front is activating and spinning. I don’t think it’s the high and low pressure thing because it’s not coming on on any setting. Not sure what else it could be.
