SERVICE INFORMATION
Vehicle owners may report the A/C does not turn OFF at times.
Even though the A/C switch is OFF:
^ |
The A/C compressor cycles. |
^ |
There is slight idle speed fluctuation. |
^ |
The outlet air temperature is cool. |
The above conditions may be normal.
There have been HVAC system improvements and design changes.
^ |
These changes affect the way the A/C compressor operates. | These improvements help reduce window fogging by dehumidifying the air. For the Applied Vehicles in this bulletin:
^ |
When a defrost mode is selected (either "defrost" or "foot/defrost"), |
and
^ |
the outside temperature is more than 36 - 37°F (2 - 3°C), |
^ |
the A/C will remain ON with the Mode Control Knob in any mode position, even if the A/C button is OFF. | NOTE: The A/C indicator light will not be ON, when the system is operating as described above.
