- In this video I take the time to show step by step the diagnosis procedure in order to find what is the part that is not letting this compressor come on! Hope you like the content and please subscribe!!
I want to thank you for doing this video. As a tech, I got stuck trying to figure out why the a/c wouldn't come alive. Tour exact procedures helped me to diagnose and fix the CR-V I had. God bless you brother
Pdubforever1 I am so happy for your comment! That is the main reason I do my videos! Help other techs! God bless you too.
Hi. What's was the fix for this?
@@jamesguralski5156 The thermal protector is part of ac compressor.
Working on a case identical to yours, don’t have a scanner so I ordered me one, but now I know what to do after seeing your video.Apparently the rebuilt compressor I just put 2 days ago (of pure agony) came with a blown thermo sensor. Thanks a lot hermano!
Man I have the same symptoms on my 07 Honda CR-V , I will try that tip . I will let you know if it works thanks.
update plz
Very logical approach. It does help to know system function & the minimum requirements to operate.
Identifix for the win for sure!! Nice video Maic!
Cuba's Automotive thank you my dear friend!
Great job you are a good teacher
Those Autel scanners with bi-directional controls are great. They are even better in the hands of a pro. Nice work.
wyattoneable I love Autel is great! Thx a lot my friend!
Good video Homie, now I’m gonna go watch it in Spanish, because I didn’t understand a thing 😎 Saludos!!! 👊🏼
Great diagnosis. Keep up good work and videos.👊
well described excellent information!
Impressive diagnosis Maic. Thanks!
Baxrok2 thank you!!
Great video Maic. I cant believe you dont have more subscribers!
Thank you so much!!
Nice diagnostics Maic. I know how I would fix that thermal switch if it was my car. ;-) haha
Ozzstar yes! Me too!!
You just jump wires and leave it as is?
Nice video, thanks! The temp switch for the CRV compressor is 38908-RWC-A02, mounted to the side of the compressor, 2 wires, looks like the end of your pinky held in place using a brkt/8mm screw.
Should be closed normally, open when it senses overheating. I suspect I have this issue, intermittently clutch doesn't engage but going to fabricate a jumper at the conn (wires 12+13) so when it shuts down on a hot day, I can enable the jumper and see if the clutch activates. Of course I won't know if the sensor is truly sensing hi temp for the compressor or not working within spec Open circuit >252F, closed
Replaced the compressor on my 2008 Honda CRV. Recalls for this year. Bad clutches.
So it's the clutch
Great video Maic. At first I thought it was going to be a switch or wiring issue. Because the switch was on. If the data said it wasn’t. Probably would’ve sent me for a wild chase.
Once again great video. Thanks for sharing. & nice new logo!
Thx my friend! Ah you notice the logo change! Awesome! Thx again!
Thank you. Great informative video.
Thank god for this video,
You did the jump wire trick and left it as is?
I had the same problem and I replaced the coil and clutch ,which they had a recall on years ago.mine works good as new.the coil is in a bad place where it heats up to much near the exhaust.
Do you remember if the both fans kicked on when you pushed the ac button on the dash? I have a 2008 and the fans come on, system is charged but the clutch does not engage.
Yes they do. That means is active. So most likely a Clutch problem or broken wire
So is it a bad thermal switch or an open circuit somewhere?
So where was that thermal protection located
james guralski it is located in the compressor but it is mounted externally so no need to disconnect lines to replace it.
Do both fans work together or will one go on without the other?
When AC is on both fans should run
Thank you Maic. Good job. I appreciate your videos. Have a blessed and safe week.
Billy Yoder you too! Thank you
My 2007 crv ac blows cold when running but hot when on idle. Both fans are running. Any idea what is wrong? Im trying to save some money. Please help
Anthonette F well it can be a bad condenser or low in charge. It will help if you can hook a set of pressure gauges to see pressures at idle
So if it is bad i have to replace the compressor,?
Hi, my ac goes off n blow hot air while running and found a leak on the vents (sticky) , It also happens when the speed or temp is adjusted..cud it be bcoz of bad compressor?
Hello ok so I’m in the same position with my 2007 cvr so if I do the test just changing the thermal protection will do it? Why did you say at the end that you where going to have to change the compressor? Lol
My sister 200 miles away paid another shop to ts the AC and electrical system and they said 1450.00 to swap compressor. I talked to the guy and it didn't sound right. She took it to another place that said compressor so he swapped it out and it's now an electrical problem. I'm a retired mechanic and there needs to be a lot more classes on ts.
My 2009 CR-V ac works fine on days when it is not hot. When the temp on the dash panel shows more than around 83 degrees, then the ac starts blowing warm air. When the temp cools down, then it goes back to blowing cold air. I think it must be a thermostat issue but I don't know where. Someone told me it must be the compressor. Any insights? Thanks.
So can I just put a jumper on this thermal protection and call it good? It would be silly to replace a compressor for a 0.30 cent part
Hello, i have the same problem but i have installed a new compressor still doesnt work. It has mor than the 25 psi, new compressor, new condenser, new fuse box, relays and fuses are good. When i turn the switch on the blower blows but the ac does not engage. i have one of the the same Autel scanner and checked it like you did but does work.
is the thermal protector located on the compressor?
Hi Sir, my Honda CRV 2010 got overheat a while ago because it did not have coolant, after I did put coolant and started the car I realized that the AC dosnt work, after research I think the thermal protection has got a problem, but the problem is that I can not locate the Thermal protection in the car to replace it .Could you please tell me where is the location of the part in the car? Thank you
It is attached to the ac compressor.
Dear friend I do have the same tool u have how I can change the Background on the car icon
Please let me know
Mahmoud Hantouli I will do a video of that for you tomorrow!
@@MaicSalazarDiagnostics thank you so much for your help
The pressure sensor readings are commanding the clutch on and off.Why is this thermal protection needed?Is this a fail safe mode if the regular pressure sensor fails and the pressure in the system raises too much?
Petar the thermal protector is there just in case the compressor gets to hot because is next to the exhaust manifold. Honda has a recall on these compressors and extended the warranty to 10 years or 100k miles. It is just a bad design, so they add that to try to extend the life of the compressor.
Would it be oKay to bypass the thermal switch altogether and use it like that ? Thanks
JOGO I can’t say is good! But the pressure sensor is also a safe feature for the system. I will rather replace the thermal protection which you can get on amazon or so.
The fans weren't coming on before you shorted across the thermal protector? My fans come on like they should but not the compressor. Lots of pressure, relays clicking.
bratman99 then you should check the compressor clutch
Question what model autel you have and nice video
Shawn Edwards maxisys Elite
@@MaicSalazarDiagnostics ok my tool man has a my908 dont know if that's a decent one
@@shawnedwards2227 it is a great scanner from Autel! this is the link of the video I made for you!

@@MaicSalazarDiagnostics ok will watch thanks
My issue is how do I replace the thermo resistor? I don’t have the money to replace the compressor right now.
Check this link, you might need to un bolt the compressor to gain access!

There is a recall on the 2002-2009 Honda CRV Ac Clutch, common problem from bad design and it gets so hot in that are , the heat causes disintegration. Shouldn’t cars be checked for recall before commencing with expensive repairs. I have the same problem with my 2007, and I checked first and found the recall.
There is not such thing! They extended the warranty on the clutch which for most of these cars is long gone! And yes we always check TSB and recall info! Costumers can do that too!
Honda's been having these AC Problems before 2000 and never had fixed it since, just like what they had on their transmissions. Sadly 😔☹️ aren't that good of a design, perhaps overdone it. BTW they only go bad at least after 10-15 years of usage LoL 😂😁🤣
Autel scanner review
So what is main thing that causes AC not working,you didn’t tell or show it
Hi, obviously you did not watch the video. I show the entire test and what is wrong.
@@MaicSalazarDiagnostics I watch till end but you tell exactly cause
@@zionman9149 I show in the video the AC not working and how I bypass the thermal protection in the compressor. I also mentioned what is the part and that most likely needs a compressor since the thermal protection (failed part) is not sold separately, at least not at the time I posted this video.
@@MaicSalazarDiagnostics so did changed the hole terminal protection socket or it is a wire breaker?
2002-09 CRV compressor are bad. ALL crv ac systems fail 2002-09. There was a "recall" bulletin.
So the compressor bad ?
Gilbert Escobedo not ok in this case. It was just the Thermal protection that was bad. But most of the times the protection goes bad because the compressor has been over heating many times.
Ok I’m gonna spend 1,500 on a scanner to fix my ac
Those scan tools are not 1,500 lol only mechanics really appreciate those scan tools
My AC is blowing hot air.
Compressor is working
Fans are workimg
Freon is ok
What else could be wrong?
Check your climate control maybe it’s faulty
@@meatyklaws8774 Can you check the climate control with a scanner? do you know where it's located? I replaced the clutch and coil already. it blew cold for about 15 min, then when we changed the AC on and off, it never came back on again. seems intermittent. I'm waiting on a scanner to be delivered so I can check this Thermal protector. whish I knew about this before I put car back together.
Tim Silvers the climate control is the buttons you push to turn the ac on and off it’s the knobs you turn
@@meatyklaws8774 Thank you I thought you may have been talking about a thermistor I see one mentioned in some posts as well
