1997 Honda Civic Questions & Answers
I have a 1997 Civic. My vents are stuck blowing out into my face but my main problem is, its not switching to my defrost at all. The control motor does work but no air is coming out at the top
are you trying to get heater working or A/C or just heater + defrost mode ( no whether there told)
well the HVAC is failing
it needs service.
the service manual covers this chapter HVAC.
The vent actuators can fail all these way.
fuses all good.
motor blower does spin fast, does it hear and felt on one of many vents. in recirc mode is best.
if blower is dead , or silent the blower on HIGH (is it)
on high the resistor block is BYPASSed.
the blower resistor block is bad or blower dead.
next mode motors (actuators)
causes aplenty

Mode control motor
Recirculation control motor
and blend motor, all; air mixture motor
the control panel as 5 switches for mode.
and 5 wires and 1 ground
we'd test all 5 modes to be sure the motor went to all 5 modes (eyes on motor)
if not, we'd turn pull mode motor make sure the modes an all be tuned by hand.
then if yes a news motor is needed.
the logic for the controller only shows each 5 grounds the line for proper mode.
the LED there can lie due to each mode switch has 2 switches for each mode. 10 total.
if some modes work , the ground is good.g402

Remove the center console from the interior of the vehicle using the screwdriver. Remove the gear shift knob and disconnect the heat switch connectors (which should just pull out of the switches); front power accessory port and rear power accessory port (which should just pull out of the socket connectors); and illumination power cables (which should simply un-clamp by hand with squeeze connectors).
Remove the lower dashboard panels, driver glove box and center storage pocket using the screwdriver.
Carefully remove the airbag assembly from the steering wheel and the passenger side. The airbags are held in place with spring clamps, which will pop open with mild pressure. Be careful to not apply too much pressure--even a discharged airbag may still deploy if too much shock is applied.
Separate the steering column assembly from the dashboard unit by moving the column to the fully up position. Use a piece of heavy tape to secure the shaft sliding cover onto the steering column while it is removed.
Remove the hoses by opening the spring hose clamps using the vise grips. Remove all remaining wires. Remove the harnesses and retainer bolts using the Phillips screwdriver. Remove the connectors, air bag control computer and center lower covers by squeezing open the hand squeeze clamps. (This may require the assistance of another person.)
Lift the dashboard out slowly and remove it from the vehicle by sliding it out of one of the doors.
97 civic 5spd. Jumping while accelerating.
Just check the transmission fluid-if low you have to add until it is full-do not overfill though. Better to have it just a bit low than overfilling it.
In park, can you accelerate to 2500-3000 rpm, and hold steady with no shaking or indications of a miss? If it runs good in park or neutral, then you probably have transmission problems. Frankly, it is pretty rare for a torque converter to develop a problem. Check your fluid, or try changing the fluid if it is dark or dirty looking.
What is the meaning of nos?
NOS is Nitros Oxide or Laughing gas. Basically it is like pumping very cold oxygen into your motor which makes the petrol burn much faster ,hotter and cleaner . This delivers close to 90% of the power from your fuel instead of the usual 60%
This puts a HUGE load on pistons, conrods ,bearings and your transmission.
If you buy a nitrous kit for your car, all the relevant plumbing etc should be included , however I would suggest you talk to your local speed shop and engine rebuilder as to what mods you should do to your specific engine.
Personally I would buy a spare engine to play with , then, when it explodes you can put the old one back in while you are rebuilding your silly motor.
Endless fun and a great way to spend your money.
