where is the A/C clutch relay on 96 accord - 3/15/2008 2:57:49 PM    roadstump   Posts: 3 Joined: 8/26/2007 Status: offline My A/C is not blowing cold.   I am not hearing a click or feeling the engine surge when I click the A/C button on and off.    Both 7.5 amp fuses under dash check good so I want to check the clutch relay. According to Chilton manual the A/C clutch relay and condenser fan relay are mounted separately from the under hood relay and fuse box.    Even though there is a picture in the manual I cannot find it.

Maybe the compressor and relay are okay and you need to have the system recharged? < Message edited by hondadude -- 3/15/2008 3:11:01 PM > _____________________________ This post was made by a REAL Hondadude, not the wanna be Honda_Dude 85 Yota pickup 235k miles "never say die" 22r engine. 92 Acura Legend 70k miles.
