Can someone run the ac test for me?

I have having a problem with my AC in my 06. I have to turn the temp down to 56 to get any fan speed. This has not been the case in the past. I could set it at 72 and the fan speed would adjust accordingly,but never run as low as it does now. There is a test in the SERVICE MANUAL that is easily activated. I would like to to know what numbers you get. This test, test each of the ac sensors in your car. What you do is press the auto and dual button at the same time and then start the car. You will then see a 1 and another number flash. the 1 is test 1 and is indicating the cabin temp inside the car in Celsius. If you tap the rear defrost button is will move to the next sensor. There are nine test in all. I would like for any of you to test this and post the nine numbers you get. This will help me when I take my car to the shop to avoid that" we found nothing wrong" BTW, test number 9 tells you the temp coming out of your vent, and test number 5 tells you the evaporator temp. Thanks for your assistance

Im at work right now, but I'm having the same problem Mr. West.

I ask the service guys at Acura to check it out for me, and they said nothings wrong with it.

I have to lower my temperature below 70 to even get a decent breeze going

Whats the outside temperature? I think it goes by the temp outside/inside to determine how much fan speed it uses.

My fan's been blowing like the Moffett Field wind tunnel lately in the 95+ degree weather. and I usually leave my system at 70.
