I have a 2016 RDX and I recently had my air filter change at the car dealership and yesterday when I turned on my air conditioner it only is blowing out warm air. Is there something the dealership might have forgot to do or not do. Before having the air filter changed, it work beautifully.

      No I doubt they can do anything ur ac systym might not be working. Why don’t u put the ac on and under the hood touch the low ac line let me know if it’s cold? Also check relay and fuse. For ac compressor. By the way bled door motor is behind by glovebox maybe they could had pulled connector to cut off the motor at heat side but check the basics first let me know update me

      @@RBTheMechanic Hi RB - Thank you for your quick response. I turned on the AC for 8 mins and touched the Low AC hose and it was not cold-cold just a little cool but not warm. I checked the filters & they look fine. By the way, I purchased my RDX brand new in 2016 and rarely turn on the AC. That is why I am confused as to why it is not blowing cold-cold air. The air it blow is not hot but not cold-cold like it used to blow. I have not check the fuse or Relay yet. I am afraid I might mess something up if I pull the relay out. If I do, I will let you know what happens.
