I have a 2008 honda civic lx 1.8L, I cant for the life of me figure out if my AC compressor uses a 1 or 3 pin connector. and Ive been seeing mixed answers. Anyone have any insight?

 

Try looking at it.

 

Did a Google search. It seems there are two types of compressors that the civics used.
One compressor has a single pin connector. The other uses three pins.
You can go to an online parts website such as https://www.hondapartsonline.net/. And do your search by using your vin number.
I do know that Honda vehicles made in the USA and Japan and elsewhere are different slightly.
Using your vin should help eliminate confusion.
Or, you can go under the car and see the connector type.
Or, you can call the parts department of your Honda dealer and ask then which one your vehicle uses.
