    2016~2023 2016+ CX-9 A/C Drain Location

    Does anyone know where the air conditioning condensate drain line is? I've noticed that when running the AC there is not water pooling on the ground. I've felt around the passenger side carpeting and had a look behind the glove box. I see no signs of water and don't know where it's going.

    2013 CX9 - Driver's side won't blow cold A/C

    When trying to get A/C to turn on, we get ice cold air from the passenger vents and rear vents but the driver's vents blows ambient temp air. It occurs whether we are in single zone or dual zone mode. It occurs whether in floor or vent mode. Heater works fine. I'm guessing it is an actuator on...

    a/c not cold past 1

    I have been driving a friends protege for almost a year. I love it. But AC blows ice cold on speed 1, and the light comes on for the ac. However, turn it to 2 or higher and the coldness disappears and the light goes off completely. Turn it back down and it blows cold. The fan blows but its not...

    Air conditioner issues

    I am stumped. The ac in our 2012 mazda 5 had quit blowing, you could feel cool just no blower. Replaced the serpentine belt, blower motor resistor, blower fan relays cabin air filters and fuses. Still no fan. Today started working no problem what could cause this besides a short? Would a lower...

    2016 CX-9. Can the AC keep up with very hot weather like 100 degrees and sunny?

    Hi, I think the new CX-9 checks off all the boxes on my shopping list outside of AC issues that numerous reviewers have mentioned and a possibly over eager autonomous braking feature (I see somebody just posted on that yesterday so won't repeat the question here). Regarding the AC, I've seen...

    Motor stalls when A/C tries to kick in

    Hi! Long time lurker but first time poster so bear with me =P I have a 2010 Mazda CX9 which just recently started giving problems, specifically the driver's vents wouldn't blow cold air but the rest of them did. Took it to the dealership and they say they fixed the actuator and serviced the A/c...

    2002 Miata running hot!!

    I need help!! I have a 2002 Miata - have not had any problems with it until now. It started running on the hot side a few weeks ago only when the A/c was on - gauge needle never got all the way to the H but it was halfway there from normal. Then the last few days even after the a/c is off it...

    Driver's Side Window Won't Roll Down and A/C

    Hey guys, Been a while since I've been on this forum. I've upgraded from the yellow 2003 P5 in my avatar to a 2005 Mazda3 hatch. It's in great condition, with a few hail dings, but there's a few things bugging me. 1. The driver's side window won't roll down. I knew this when I bought the car...

    what kind of gas mileage does your p5 get?

    I am inquiring about peoples average mpg as mine seems a little low. My driving is about 50% city 50% highway, not usually much traffic, just red lights. I am not a high speed driver so it stays around speed limit 90% of the time. It is a 5spd so i coast when i can and shift before 3k rpm (try...

    Condensation

    Hi, I'm new to the forum, and sadly my first post is a problem with my 2 which I've had for about a year. There are huge amounts of condensation inside the car causing the windows to fog. I'm using the ac and not recirculation. I can keep the windshield from fogging but not the rear or sides...

    Wonky A/C: Wiring suspected

    So the A/C in my Protege works, but usually only on fan settings one and four. On two and three, the air still blows but the light on the A/C button either flashes on and off or doesn't come on at all, and the air goes warm when the light is off. Any ideas where the problem might be or how to...

    Mazda5 - A/C Suddenly Erratic (Mostly Doesn't Blow Cold Air - Then Suddenly Does)

    I have a Mz5 2008 with approx. 75,000 miles on it. The A/C has always worked very well. Suddenly today at 88 degree F it got erratic. It stopped blowing cold air (just ambient temp air instead) most of the time. As soon as we were convinced the A/C was absolutely dead - then it would give us a...

    Remote Start and AC

    So I have searched and have not seen the information needed in regards to the Protege5. I installed a remote start a few months ago and everything works great. Just like it should. Now that it has warmed up I noticed that even when I leave my AC controls in the "ON" position, the AC does not...

    Disable AC compressor on Defrost setting

    This is one of the "features" of new-ish cars that I HATE: the A/C compressor is automatically enabled anytime the car is put in defrost mode. If I'm not mistaken, our P5s have this feature as well... So today I found this fix for 2001+ Miatas and wondered if the P5 setup is similar. Anyone...

    A/C Recharge...Now...Engine lags

    Hey all, I have been floating around the boards since 2008 and never thought to post a question until now... I have a Protege5 with 86k. I recently replaced the r134a in the little car and since then I am having an RPM loss of 500rpms or higher when driving around town. So much so, that there...

    A/C System 2002 Protege5 2.0 Non- Supercharged

    I am having a problem with my a/c it will cool down once going down the road but not that cool. I had the freon re-claimed we drew a vacuum and low side would not draw all the way down, added 4 cans 134 but only the high side seems to have freon. We took the low side off with hose attached and...

    A/C is auto on? How to override?

    Just got an 05 Mazda3 2.3 and am loving it. Still finding my way around all the functions.. I noticed that the A/C seems to turn on automatically when the vent selector is an 12 o'clock (straight up) and any other selection from 12 to 6 (to the right). This happens regardless of temp...
