What is your question?
I noticed my car was overheating and my AC compressor was discharging its freon, i opened the hood and found the fans not working. Please can you help me locate the fuses that controls the fans, so i can check if they are ok. My 02 sensor LH isnt working too, but would that cause the fans to stop working and also make the AC compressor to discharge freon in that harsh manner?

Inoperative cooling fans = excessive a/c compressor head pressure = pressure releasing from relief valve = the discharge you're seeing / hearing. O2 sensor irrelevant .... Owners manual has ALL fuse locations and their functions described and illustrated. Full index is in back of book - see > FUSES.
In case you do not have an owners manual - below is a link to a FREE download - in pdf form: https://carmanuals2.com/acura/rdx-2007-owner-s-manual-31785
In case you need professional *hands-on* assistance - below is a link to an auto repair facility in your zip code: â–ªï¸https://repairpal.com/repair-shopsâ–ªï¸ Good luck!
Wow thanks a lot, this information is highly relevant. But i have one more question for proper understanding. In the format above where you used "=", did you mean the inoperative fans caused the excessive a/c compressor head pressure, and the relief valve caused the freon discharge? Meaning the inoperative fans is what's causing all other problems right?
âœ”ï¸ = Correct O2 sensor is an independent issue = not related to cooling fans.. HOWEVER - depending on the actual problem - O2 sensor *heater circuit* may also be individually fused! Recommend *TESTING* all fuses.
Thank you so much.
Testing fuses using a test light: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksrsXwwukFc Simple test - ‘can’ be performed by DIYer .... Test takes approximately 10 minutes - tops.
ok thanks i'll do that when i get back from work.
Thanks i've fixed the problem, a wire under the fuse box in the hood was having partial contact, fans are working again.
