Stream AC Problem

Hi, I have a 2006 Honda Stream with a gasoline engine. My air conditioning has stopped cooling altogether, and the system doesn't even seem to switch on. I've checked the fuses, and they seem fine, but I'm not sure where to go from here. Mileage is at 184556 km. Any ideas?

The air conditioning in a 2006 Honda Stream stopped cooling and wouldn't switch on. After checking the fuses, which were fine, the issue was suspected to be related to a defect in the internal valves of the AC system. A slight rattling noise was noted before the system failed, indicating a potential valve problem. Professional diagnosis confirmed faulty valves, which were repaired at a cost of 1000€.

I had a similar issue with my Stream. Have you noticed any unusual noise coming from the AC compressor area before it stopped working? It could be a defect in one of the internal valves.

Now that you mention it, there was a slight rattling noise a week or so before it went completely. Could a faulty valve really cause the whole system to shut down like that?

Yes, a defective valve can certainly cause the symptoms you are describing. A failing valve can prevent the compressor from building pressure, which results in a lack of cooling and the system potentially shutting down completely as a safety measure. I would advise having the system professionally diagnosed to confirm the source of the problem.

Thanks for the tip. Took it to a workshop, and you were right – faulty valves in the AC system. Cost me 1000€ to repair.
