#191 of 202 honda civic 2003 a/c problem by benne22000 Feb 09, 2009 (5:26 pm)
hi everyone, I have a 2003 honda civic and last summer my a/c was blowing cold air for just 20 minutes and after the car being sitting for a while the a/c will work again. Now my a/c don't work at all, the compressor clutch doesn't engage, it will engage if I jump wire it at the relay in the hood fuse box, this is as far I went troubleshooting it. Can somone tell me what else is going on with the car, or at least give in idea what else can be wrong with it. thank you

Replying to: man_on_fire (Feb 09, 2009 4:38 pm) Same thing happened to me and dealer wanted $80 for same. The only thing they do I believe is check the serial # of the radio, call Honda and get the code for you. I believe the only way is going through a dealer. This is to protect you. You should have the credit card size card with the code on it. If you can do a trace on who the original owner of the car was, he may still have the card. If not, 45$ sounds cheap to me coming from a dealer.   Good luck
#193 of 202 Poor radio reception by nealstand Feb 19, 2009 (11:10 am)
I have a 2001 Civic with basic radio/tape/CD. The alternator and voltage regulator failed and caused several code, including the SRS fault. When this happened the radio reception became very bad. Now the alternator and voltage regulator have been replace, all error lights are off but the radio still stinks. There are no error codes on the radio either. CD and tape player work fine. Is there some sort of reset code needed?
#194 of 202 ipod and sony ericsson support in 2009 EX+Nav by shalevy Mar 19, 2009 (12:25 pm)
Hi All,   I was wondering if anyone tried the Apple ipod nano 4th generation and is it supported and does it charge through the USB port in the 2009 Civic EX+navigation?   Also, I have a Sony Ericsson phone W595 and when I plug it into the USB port, it charges but the audio/navigation system says that it's not supported, any idea? The phone does connect through bluetooth for phone-calls.   What other solutions are there to connect those devices into the already existing audio/navigation system? I would prefer solutions that will not require me to use the ipod/phone to play music.   Thanks.

Replying to: shalevy (Mar 19, 2009 12:25 pm) shalevy,   The USB iPod feature does support your iPod. Just plug in your iPod using the the USB cable and enjoy the music. You can use USB thumb drives. Those work great. You can get a 4 GB model for real cheap. The USB port fully integrates the iPod so it works just like an iPod. Hope this helps.; Replies to this message: shalevy (Mar 23, 2009 9:35 am) rv65 (Mar 23, 2009 2:37 pm)

Replying to: rv65 (Mar 22, 2009 10:11 pm) Thanks for the reply.   I was wondering specifically about the 4th generation ipod nano. The reason is that it is not listed as one of the supported ipods (only 1st, 2nd, 3rd and listed). I tried the new ipod shuffle and it doesn't work - says unsupported. And my phone doesn't work as well. Which means that not all USB thumbs, or ipods works.   So if anyone has an ipod nano 4th generation and can test it on the USB interface of the 2009 EX+navigation and can confirm that it charge and plays, please reply.   Thanks again.

Replying to: shalevy (Mar 23, 2009 9:35 am) All I can say is that it should work just fine. Honda and their supplier made sure it works just fine. All the other USB ports work with the 4th gen nano. Shuffles aren't compatible with the system. Only 5th gen and up iPods. All nanos should work just fine. It should charge and play since it uses USB. Also make sure your nano's firmware is up to date. That might help.
#198 of 202 Re: 2008 Civic Radio Reception [civictory] by biffbannik Nov 25, 2009 (12:02 pm)
Replying to: civictory (Oct 06, 2008 5:37 am) Thought I'd bump this.   Having the same issue myself with my new 2009 Civic. Very poor AM reception (FM is fine), particularly once I get out of the urban area I work in and out into the rural area where I live. Unlistenable. The AM is fine in my 2001 Civic.   The receptions get even worse if I turn on my side mirror defrosters. I haven't tried the recepetion with the engine off yet, which some people have suggested I try.   I do have a rear tint, but it is a non-metallic tint according to the dealer.   Very frustrating, as they are working with Honda Canada to resolve it, but HC doesn't seem to think there is a problem.   I've seem a suggested solution that it is caused by a poor grounding of the antenna cable, either at the point of contact with the antenna or along one of the 4(?) sections of antenna wire which are individually grounded.   Anyone successful in getting this resolved?   Cheers, Corey Replies to this message: civictory (Nov 30, 2009 6:41 am)
