2004 TSX AC - Recycle switch help

My TSX has begun to have a small quirk in the AC controls perhpas others have seen this and can comment.

When I push the AC Auto on in the car the Recycle Air comes on, light shows on and if I push the recycle air button it shuts off but so does the air conditioning? I then noticed that when I turn on the AC and the Inside Recycle air comes on after a fairly short time period the Inside recycle turns it self off and the AC stays on..

Could this be a "Filter clog" issue. I don't think I've ever changed my Inside airfilter (were just turning 118 miles) no have I had any issues at all with the the AC it cools great and the auto temp works great... Like I said this is just a new issue that I have noticed in the last few months..

Thanks for any info you can provide on this.

The forum where you originally posted, The AcuraZine User Help, Support & Suggestions Area , is meant for problems, comments, and suggestions for the website itself, so I moved your thread to the car specific forum applicable to your vehicle.

On Non-Nav, any use of manual controls turns off Auto and places system in manual mode. I have also noticed some "anamolous" operation w/ my 06 TSX, but not the same as yours.

I'm pretty sure the AC system does not detect a dirty air filter. You may notice bad smells and loss of air flow. If its at 118K and never been replaced, you are way overdue. It is highly likely to be restricting air flow.

good luck

Thanks for moving my question to the correct place on the site and thanks for the reply, I should have mentioned that it is a TSX with Nav.. everything seems to be working fine, just a hiccup once in a while...wonderd if anyone else had a similar issue as mine...
