after i installed my hondata stage 3 and new s200 ecu, my a/c hasn't been working. soembody said it was because the new s200 has a feature that disengages the a/c. but jeff@importbuilders says he never heard of that and wasn't sure. do you think i can just recharge the a/c system and it'll work or is this an ecu issue?

 

I do believe hondata had an option of A/C cut off and a preset RPM or throttle postion so when u pass people on the freeway it would shut off the A/C so u won't have to much wasted parsitic drag.. but mostly it was a cool option to have if your to lazy to shut it off when u race someone .. but u may want to check to see if maybe u need a recharge for your A/C system.. does it not blow cold air at all .. or no air whatsoever? u should read the hondata site to see other cool features that were included with the s200 setup

 

usually when you push the a/c button you hear the fan and it actually turning on. well i don't hear that anymore and no cold air whatsoever comes on even when i'm not moving. maybe recharging it will do the trick but i don't wanna waste money on recharging it and finding out it did jack crap. how much is it usually to recharge the a/c?

 

I paid $60 bucks for a recharge.. just go to a small shop that does it...or u can try doing it yourself but I would not do it I don't feel like sniffing that stuff if I mess up =P I think it was like $15 a pound or some nonsense

 

hmm interesting, i might just go get it recharged, if it doesn't work oh well, than i know it's the hondata that is messing with it. thx for the info guys
