Try bleeding the clutch and see if that helps.

Dont know.

Did you just install a new radio or anything like that? If not look on the floor on the passanger side under the dash and you should see a wire with a hook, make sure nothing it pulling/holding it

My drivers door was like this before...I took the door panel off and found the rail, running from the lock lever to the lock mechanism was off the retaining bracket. It's a small clip the rail is in to ( i guess) keep it against the door. If thats not the case, check the spring on the lock mechanism itself. Hope this helps

Climate control: Make sure the wire line isnt pinned or being held by somthing.

Locks: Take your door panel off, check and make sure lock rod is lined up correctly.

Clutch: Like stated b4 bleed it, im not sure if you can adjust it from below the dash...

Pop your hood and look where the tranny bell housing is, you will see the clutch slave cylinder. There is a nipple on there that looks just like a brake caliper. Bleed it just like you would a brake system.

my locks were the same, just kinda stiff right, i just took the door panel off and used some wd-40 on all the moving parts. works like new now. also the cable was just replaced in the climate control for the heater. i also used wd-40 on the bypass valve under the hood. and then sat there moving the **** back and forth for about 5 minutes and it feels really good now also. you could have diff problems, but thats my experience.

Hopefully this'll help your A/C lever problems.

A/C - Temperature Control Lever is Hard to Move
Notes

BULLETIN NO.
94-016

ISSUE DATE
APRIL 3, 1995

MODEL
1992-94
CIVIC
1993-94
DEL SOL

APPLICABLE To
ALL [NEW]

FILE UNDER
BODY

Temperature Control Lever Hard to Move
(Supersedes 94-016, dated June 24, 1994)

SYMPTOM

The heating system temperature control lever is binding or hard to slide back and forth.

PROBABLE CAUSE

The cam linkage for the air mix door is binding.

[IMG]CORRECTIVE ACTION

Japan-produced cars: Lubricate the groove and shaft on the main cam link with the grease listed under REQUIRED MATERIALS. Replace the air mix control cable if it is bent.

Ohio- and Canadian-produced cars: Lubricate the groove and shaft on the main cam link with the grease listed under REQUIRED MATERIALS. If the air mix control cable is bent, replace it and the main cam link.

1. Move the temperature control lever to the full left (cold) position.


2. Apply a thin coat of the MH62 grease (see REQUIRED MATERIALS) to the slot in the main cam link.

3. Move the temperature control lever to the full right (hot) position.



4. Apply a thin coat of the MH62 grease to the now-exposed portion of the same slot.



5. Use a small flat tip screwdriver to apply a small amount of the MH62 grease to the shaft of the main cam link.

6. Move the temperature control lever back and forth several times to see if it now moves freely.

^ If the lever now moves freely, the repair is complete.

^ If the lever is still hard to move, the cable needs replacing. Go on to Air Mix Control Cable Replacement.



Air Mix Control Cable Replacement

Japan-produced cars: Replace the air mix control cable only (steps 1-10 and 14-18).

Ohio- and Canadian-produced cars: Replace the air mix control cable and the main cam link (steps 1-18).

1. Record the customer's radio presets. If it is an anti-theft radio, make sure you have the activation code.

2. Disconnect the battery.

3. Remove the center lower cover and the radio.



4. Disconnect the air mix control cable from the heater assembly.



5. Remove the three self-tapping screws, disconnect the connectors, and remove the heater control panel from the dashboard.



6. Cut the air mix control cable at the temperature control lever. Disconnect the cut end of the cable from the lever. Pull the remaining pan of the cable out of its housing.



7. Using a sharp knife, cut through the cable housing at the two locations shown.

8. Slide the large piece of the cable housing out of the holder. Do not damage the cable holder.

9. Use a small screwdriver to remove the remaining pieces of cable housing from the cable holder.



10. Hook the end of the new air mix cable to the temperature control lever. Push the cable housing into the holder until it locks in place.



11. Remove the main cam link.

12. Apply a small amount of MH62 grease to the shaft and slot of the new main cam link. Install the new link on the shaft.

13. Reinstall the main cam lever and the link rod.

14. Reinstall the heater control panel in the dashboard.

15. Reinstall the radio and center lower cover.

16. Connect and adjust the air mix control cable and the heater valve cable. (Refer to section 21 of the appropriate service manual.)

17. Make sure that the temperature control lever moves easily.

18. Reconnect the battery. Enter the anti-theft code in the radio (if needed), and set the radio preset buttons. Set the clock.
