This is a 92 Accord. The blower works, just blows warm air. The heater
also works just fine. When it is not working (most of the time) the
compressor clutch does not kick on at all. The AC fan does not kick on but
the radiator fan does. At least I think the passenger side is the radiator
fan. Today it came on for about 2 minutes when I first started it but has
not worked the rest of the day. Related or not, the radiator fan will run
on and off for 10 minutes or so after the car is shut off. It didn't do
that until I put a new radiator in this fall.

Thanks

I had the same problem (A/C not working) with my 93 Accord a while back
and it was caused by a bad sensor (Low Freon pressure sensor?) Not sure
what it was called but it's located close to the dryer in front of the
radiator. Mine was reddish/brown I think with a grey connector on top.
