Why does my Honda Civic get ice in it?
Ice formation can occur if somehow moisture got introduced into the system. As an experiment to pin point the problem, you can have your AC blow hot air and see if that improves the time that the system takes to start cooling again normally. It’s a simple fix. I had the exact same issue with my Honda 2010 Civic.
How long does it take for Honda air conditioning to cool?
The A/C works pretty well – it comes on fast and blows cold. However, after 5 – 10 minutes it stops cooling and starts blowing warm air. If I turn the A/C off, after another 5 – 10 minutes I am able to turn it on again and I can feel the compressor engage and it cools again.

What’s the problem with my Honda Civic a / C?
2006 Honda Civic. The A/C works for the first 5 minutes of the day (blows pretty cold), then doesn’t come on again. When the A/C works for that first five minutes, the clutch engages (no weird sounds) and the cooling fan is on.
Why does my Honda A / C only work intermittently?
It will work intermittently but after a time will open up. Best test for this is to run it until it stops then check continuity across the clutch coil. Controlers can go bad as well, but typically on this model i have found it is the clutch coil.

What to do if your Honda AC is not working?
You may be better off going to a shop and paying for an A/C service. That costs about the same as good set of gauges anyway. At the very least, they can tell you what is wrong with the system if there is a bad part. I should also mention that the fan still comes on even when the AC isn’t on.
