I've had my 89 Accord LXI for about 6 weeks, ran great for 2 weeks, then starting having a starting problem. Sometimes it would start, others it would crank and crank, but not start till it seemed like it descided to. I deliver pizzas in it, so I was so glad to find the problem to be the coolant temp sensor which only cost $17. It was bad, so the ECI would think the car was cold when it wasn't causing too much fuel .......
My problem now is that the #5 fuse under drivers dash gets super hot and the ac compressor doesn't kick on. When I first discovered the blown fuse, I replaced it and the ac blew cold for about 6 miles, then blowed. Replaced the fuse which started blowing in 2 or 3 minutes. Tried using a circuit breaker fuse, but it keeps kicking on and off. So I put a 30 amp in there, it doesnt blow, but get so hot, that it almost melted. The light for the ac comes on, but no cold air. Funny thing though the vent light rarely works, but does some, sometimes really dim or not at all, but occasionally lights bright as can be. All the other setting's lights work. How do I troubleshoot this problem?
