You're going to have to remove the climate control. It'd be easiest to just replace the entire climate control piece with one from a salvage yard.

You'll have to remove the panel that's under the climate control (the panel that houses the 12 volt plug) and access the lower screws through there.

The wire just clips on.

I'd help you, but ghetto typing make me want to punch babies.

Go to a junkyard and get a new wire.

I mean, under the dash where the cable connects to the blower assembly, the cable just clips on.



IIRC, it's a pain to get off of the climate control assembly. So just get a full used part. I don't think you can order just the cable form Honda anyway and it'd probably be comparable in price to buy a used climate control versus a brand new cable.

Just go to a salvage yard and pull the entire climate control assembly. You'd have to remove the climate control from the dash to get to the other end of the wire anyway, so it's actually LESS work than trying to just remove the cable.
