Charged the a/c system in small quantities while monitoring the vents with a temperature gauge. I got it down to 42 degrees vs 75 degrees.

Do you ever see this problem because it's so darn hot the right side is boiling off all the refrigerant? i.e. it's 110F out and you see 60F coming out of the right and 90F out of the left and the heat load is too much for the A/C to cool off the car enough for the two to equalze? Meaning that neither of the problems you described is the issue. In my experience driving through hotter climates it seems like no small car has an AC strong enough to really cool things down in a reasonable amount of time.

I took the car to Honda, told them that I thought it was low refrigerant. They verified that diagnosis, and evacuated and charged the system, after replacing the fill Schrader valves under warranty. The Schrader valves where a problem that caused the refrigerant to leak out after 15 years.. Honda still stood behind it.. What you said in this video was right on..

On our 2006 Accord with dual (left/right) blend door motors, the left one is definitely not good. If we ONLY use the standard cold/hot control (that operates both L & R) it works OK. But if anyone operates the L & R independently, the left motor loses its mind completely, sending nothing but hot air. The temp “fix” is to move the common L/R hot-cold buttons all the way HOT, back to all the way COLD, do that a few times and the left motor eventually syncs back. It’s a project for another day.

They gave it back to me with a bill for $162 for oil, filter, rotate and air recharge. Still blows warm to hot air. I knew I was right when I told them the blend door was the problem and they wanted me to drive it for a week or about 150 miles so they could check for leaked dye. I told them a small leak has nothing to do with hot on one side cool on the other. ITS A BLEND DOOR PROBLEM and they are going to hear about it when I go back.

@BigDog50001 3 жыл бұрын
Always possible there is more than one issue, I see that a lot. Low refrigerant (most likely caused by a leak) or an air mix motor issue (if equipped with two air mix motors) can both cause poor cooling on the left side. Some models do not have two air mix motors (dual climate control) but most EX-L models do. If it does not have dual climate control it is most likely not an air mix motor/blend door issue due to only having one blend door on that design. A large enough refrigerant leak will cause poor cooling performance (starting with the left side) pretty quickly. Refrigerant restrictions and other electrical problems can also cause cooling performance issues too. Regardless, the shop should have been able to tell you the exact level of refrigerant they removed (i.e. was it low, overcharged or at the proper level?), they should have checked for leaks and advised on that and they should have checked operation of the air mix motor(s) and let you know the status of those also. Leaks, restrictions in the system and intermittent problems can all cause the shop to have difficulty finding the problem immediately but they should be communicating with you on what they have done. Thanks for the input!

Thanks, @bigdog! This helps me understand and troubleshoot. My 2006 Accord had dual temperature controls and the passenger side sometimes blows the warmer air. The curious part is the if crank that side's temperature to lowest temp, it will send cool air through. Thus, I assume that by cranking it down the passenger side pulls more refrigerant. That would mean that the evap core is also split, I think. So I'll check the refrigerant first.

from what he says, I'd think if you have dual zone AC, the right air mix door would be the issue

i have this issue right now on my 2010 civic, the passenger side vent (just the one on the right) is cold and the driver and middle vents are warm. I have checked the AC relay (OK), checked the temp ix door (its working), performed a hvac self test and no lights flash, checked r-gas with the fill can kits and its in the blue (filled). Not sure what else it can be. I noticed first thing in the am when it is a bit cool outside, all vents are ok and then within 10 to 15 mins same issue happens. Any help would be awesome!

Mine has a small leak on a high side coupling and the high side service port. The caps need to be TIGHT on these ports. The o-ring in the cap is the primary seal NOT the shrader valve unlike in a car or bicycle tire.

Correct, technically the cap is considered the primary seal on AC systems but the valve should not leak when cap is removed. The Schrader valve should be replaced if they leak.

I have a 2006 Honda Accord EX that has this problem. The door blend actuator on the driver's side was replaced since it was broken. The problem was still there so I recharged my system with freon (19 oz.) and still no success. I now found out that the recirculation actuator on the driver's side is also not moving its arm at all so I ordered a new one. I tried moving the blend door manually but the problem still persists. This car has 3 actuators under the dash and the 3rd one (the mode actuator) appears to be working well. However, I think I've found 2 problems with the system recharge. The first is that both valve cores are bad as they are slowly leaking and second, the ac manifold readings are off from what I think is considered normal. The ambient temp here is about 86 °F. With engine off: Low side --> ~105 psi and High side - - > ~105 psi. With engine on and ac on: Low side --> ~20 psi and High side ---> ~65 psi. I added 19 oz. of freon as that's what the service manual calls for. Should I replace the valve cores and add more freon to try to raise the pressures?

Where you have Left and Right, which is the driver's side vs. passenger's side? This always confuses me on cars. Is it looking at it from the driver's perspective (sitting in driver's seat) or the mechanic's perspective (standing in front of engine compartment).

Excellent vid, great job explaining how it all works! I'm researching an issue with my 2017 Civic EX, the right vent in the middle blows cold, the rest don't. Thinking it could be low on refrigerant however it's YF so it's tricky and expensive, have you seen a similar issue on these? Thanks again!

hey ! this video was super helpful. my first time around i actually felt super comfortable knowing that my brand new car just needed anti freeze. not to mention i never been in an accident so i have no reason to believe i have a leak. up until yesterday when i realized that it was the 3rd day in a row that my left air vents are blowing hot air again. i filled up on anti freeze just two months ago. now i’m confused , any suggestions ? btw i drive a honda 2019 civic sport, please lmk if anyone else is also having these problems, thanks ! shoutout to the video creator! great break down !

Low engine coolant can cause issues with the HVAC system for sure. In addition, newer Civics are known to have issues with refrigerant leaks in the condenser, low refrigerant can cause this issue. On dual climate control systems, a problem with the driver's side blend door can also cause this issue (and a problem with the passenger side blend door can cause the opposite issue).

so what if it was on the right passenger side and switched to the left driver side after I swapped a new cabin filter (2012 Acura TL). i pulled the motors thinking one was bad but theyre not. Also, the cabin filter was full of tree leaves and sticks so i was wondering 1. HTF and 2. could a stick be stuck in there somewhere holding the blend door open on one side ? 3. Why would the heat swap from the right to the left just changing the cabin filter?

if ac is off, just fan on. and driver’s side is warm and passenger side is cool air, would this be the result of bad blend actuator?

If it is a dual climate control system then yes one of the actuators could be bad. Could also be a coolant system problem too.

Having same issue on my 2015 Acura RDX. Did research and I was about to order and replace the air blender actuator but one commenter said check the refrigerant first before ordering parts. Took it to a mechanic and he recharged it for $120. Lo and behold, AC now blows ice cold air on all vents. Thank God! Mechanic joked: if you get sick, don't blame me
