RPM drops from 800 to 250-200 when A/C turns on
Hi, I have a Honda Civic CF4 (Automatic) 2005 Model. The problem started when the generator's (alternator) bearing broke off and damaged the generator. I got it repaired but whenever I turn on the A/C, the RPM Drop to 250-200 and the car starts vibrating at idle. When I freshly turn on the car and THEN turn on the A/C, the RPM normally stay on 1000 but as I drive the car and it warms up, the situation worsens and at idle the car sits at 200-250 rpm wobbling. Can anyone diagnose the problem? I have spent a lot of money visiting several mechanics and electricians but the problem still persists.
Thanks!
Thanks!
When you say you had the alternator "repaired" do you mean you had it replaced with a new one or they fixed the old one? Never heard of a bearing 'breaking off", but have heard of them locking up. Sure it wasn't the pulley that came off. Not trying to nitpick what you said just trying to get a better understanding.
