Asked by JR47164 Jun 03, 2016 at 11:46 AM about the 1999 Honda CR-V EX AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 1999 CR-V with 225k on the clock, when I turn on the A/C I get a
check engine light. The code when read says I have a evaporator leak. I can
reset the light and run it with no A/C and it is Okay, Does anyone have any
past experience with this problem?

This is not an A/C code, it is an emission code. According to the scanner used it says first try a new gas cap, if not that then it may have an evap leak, which is emissions related, just trying to figure how the two tie together and what makes the code appear when the A/C compressor is energized and working. Previous owner never used the A/C because of the check engine light appearing.
