Hi,

I am driving Honda stream '09 now.....I got a terrible experience today.....

Air-con feels like was cut-off in my journey to K.L this late morning. It is a hot sunny day, no cold air from the air-con and only the fan is blowing. :cry:

The cabin temperature become very warm and very unbearable. :cry:



I suspect it this symptom "Aircon was cutoff during long hours driving in hot weather", as I had experienced this before. But, if i drive in cool weather, not problem at all. :cry:



My summary of incident,

830 am - Start journey

1000 am – Air-con status: begins to feel not cold

10 30 am – Stop for petrol

10 45 am – Resume journey, Air-con status: no cold air from air-con with the fan blowing only

1130 am – stop for lunch

1200 am – resume journey, Air-con status: no cold air from air-con with the fan blowing only

1 pm – out of highway and entering the heavy traffic town, Air-con status: no cold air from air-con with the fan blowing only

1 30pm – in the middle of town with heavy traffic, Air-con status: suddenly resume

2 30pm – Reach destination after heavy traffic, Air-con status: Back to normal

Need advice from expert here, what is wrong with the aircon? and more importantly how to solve this problem?

Either the a/c relay or the compressor clutch is faulty.
