I have a 2012 TL SH-AWD and the blower motor randomly stopped working. I checked the fuses then replaced the motor. Nothing. I replaced the Resistor. Nothing. While talking to someone about it they asked if my compressor clutch was turning on. It had never occurred to me to check that because it was my fan that stopped working. I look down in the engine bay and what do you know, the compressor wasn't working. I replaced that relay and now all is well. It just seemed very strange to me.

Nicely done. I've solved more than one Honda/Acura AC issue by checking the relay first.
Man, I had the similar issue in July and I found some information online regarding the relay..
I check the relay by swapping it out with the similar one next to it and voila... A/C works again..
I went to Advance Auto Part and bought a replacement for $6.00...
It's all good now...
