How dose that max AC button work on the new Raido you put in the old one has its own button for max AC. But the new android one you put in dose not have a Max AC button so how dose it work?

@PracticalMechanic

Жыл бұрын

Hi, the max ac button on the original radio did 3 things: set fan speed to max, set temp to min, and turned on the recirculation. On the new radio, you have to set each of these individually to get the same thing, ie press the ac button (if not already on), press the recirculation button, rotate the temp knob to minimum, press the fan up button to max.

Note for everyone, when removing the top part the soft touch material honda used on the upper dash is so soft that if you deform it you will never get it back to before. It's better to just pry from the bottom and not the sides at all. You can see he annihilated his dash.

Practical mechanic AND practical instructor. This is incredibly well edited and concise. In less than ten seconds you're on step one. Most importantly everything is well lit, wide field of view and narration is clearly articulated at a steady pace. This is how every instructional video should be, so many people get this wrong because they are self indulgent about being on camera. I do appreciate you've shown respect for the viewers time by keeping this under five minutes, it was as long as it should be. If I ever make instructional videos in the future, I'll be using this as a reference. Thanks.
