I have a 97 CRV and for the last year when temps go above 90 degrees the AC
starts to cut out and blow hot air only. At the same time the temp guage
goes up and then after a minute or two the cold air kicks in. Have had
compressor replaced but no change, there seems to be some fan that does
not kick in but not sure what is real problem?

==================

Does the level of the coolant in the radiator and the reservoir tank
match what the owner's manual says? If it's low, your thermostat won't
work right, your temp sensor(s) won't work right, your fans won't start,
and you'll start warping / cracking your head.

Any leaks on the driveway? (Plain water doesn't count)

 open the hood, when the a/c is on both fans should be running. are they?

I have checked both fluid levels and they are fine. There are two fans and
it seems one of them is the one that cuts out as temp goes above 90
degrees.

THE DEALER FOUND THE A/C RAD FAN HAD INTERMEIITANT PROBLEMS, REPLACED
FAN, IT IS NOW AS IT WAS WHEN NEW. HAVE THEM TAKE BACK THE COMPRESSOR
IF I WAS YOU. HOPE THIS HELPS, SORRY FOR THE UPPER CASE TYPE.
