A/C out after Radiator replacement

[natura111]

I have a 92 accord and I had the radiator replaced. the radiator was so bad that it would go through a gallon of water every 5 miles. Finally goit fixed but before I did the A/C stopped working and now that it is fixed the A/C still does not work. Are the 2 related? Any help would be appreciated.

Probably not related. One thing's fo sure --- replacing the radiator (for whatever reason) WON'T fix a non-working A/C.

Some cars are "smart" enough to cancel A/C operation if engine temp and/or coolant level are way out of normal range, don't know if Hondas will do that, but if so, it's possible a coolant level sensor or something is now stuck, and won't allow A/C operation. I'd think if that were the case though, you'd get a warning light.

Watch the A/C compressor and see if it's clutch snaps together when it is turned on, and if so, try to locate the sight glass in the high pressure line and see if there is refrigerant moving in there. If you see bubbles flying by, it needs a charge, it should run nearly clear when properly charged.

Make sure the aux radiator fan comes on when the A/C is turned on. Are we sure both fans are connected after having the radiator out, and all sensors in the rad are hooked up?

Check that too.
