Erratic air con

[amkdil]

I have an Accord 2008 (03-08). I've had major problems with the air con since I bought it 5 years ago, but otherwise a great car. I've now had all parts replaced, except the control unit. It now works, but erratically. Sometimes there's no cold air at all, sometimes it's only on one side, then the other side of the car, regardless of dual being off and both sides being at the same temp. Seeing as all parts have been replaced with exception of the control unit, I'm guessing that this must be faulty? If so, does this mean the whole radio /sat nav/CD unit has to be replaced too? Thanks.

Hi....welcome to the Forum

 

from memory and replacing control unit on a CRV a few weeks ago, carefully remove the fascia plate and the panel stays in place with a couple screws retaining it.
Replaced the panel and the A/C worked fine after that.

 

Let us know what you find

Hi Trevor, did you replace the control unit, or literally just the facia? 

 

Thanks

Hi again, was your control unit built in to the radio/CD etc? 

 

Thanks

yes, same area but seperate when removed the retaining screws
