Elysion AC failure
Summary of the thread
The 2005 Honda Elysion's air conditioning system has stopped cooling entirely, with the system not switching on. The blower motor appears functional, but there may be a defect in the AC system's valves. A similar issue was resolved by checking for refrigerant leaks, which can cause the cooling system to fail. It is recommended to consult a professional for diagnosis and repair, as specialized tools may be required.

Thanks for the quick reply! No, no weird noises at all, which is strange. Just complete silence and zero cooling. A refrigerant leak makes sense, but wouldn't there usually be some kind of sound? Did yours eventually fail completely like this?

Yeah, mine ended up failing completely eventually. One day it was working okay-ish, the next, nothing. No noise either, just warm air blowing. Honestly, I'd get it checked out by a professional. I spent ages trying to figure it out myself, and it turned out to be something I couldn't fix without special tools. Ended up costing me a bomb, around 1000€!

Ouch, 1000€! Okay, that's the push I needed. I'll book it into the workshop. Thanks so much for sharing your experience; it's really helpful to know I'm not alone and to prepare myself for the worst. Hopefully, it won't be quite that expensive for me, but at least I have a ballpark figure now.

That sounds familiar! I had a similar AC problem with my Elysion a while back. Is there any weird AC noise when you try to turn it on, like a hissing or grinding? It could be a refrigerant leak, which would stop the cooling system from working. AC maintenance is important anyway. I hope you can fix the temperature control!
