Default Turning Off Auto A/C Turn-On

Hello Everyone,

Tried this trick 3 times and still doesn't work. Does anyone else have this problem or is it just me that can't turn 2 ***** to the left, push two buttons in and start the car?

If, once you've done the trick, you rotate the location **** to a defrosting position, the A/C automatically will turn on. There is no way to avoid that. But, you can still turn it off, once it's turned on.

I finally got the trick to work. The only thing different I did from the first and the last is that I had both doors unlocked.

The air recirculation button blinked and then the A/C light turned on. Now I can turn on and off A/C when I want.

I was trying to remember what I did. I must have tried half a dozen time to make it work.

If I recall, I had all the ***** turned to the left. Then I pressed both buttons and turned the car on. The air recirculation button blinked and then the A/C light turned on.

I got it!

I was being too impatient about it.. I wasn't waiting long enough for the AC light to come on.. I was only waiting for the recirc. light to start flashing. Oops!
