07 Accord a/c comes on by it self?
I know in my other hondas when you select the “defrost-front-glass” setting regardless of temperature setting the a/c light comes on. (which you can de-select by pressing the a/c button again)
But in my sister’s new 2007 accord, the a/c light does NOT come on by itself when you select the “defrost-front-glass” or “defrost-front-glass and foot.” I believe I can hear the a/c kicking in every time I select any of the defrost settings.
My question is:
1) does the a/c come on automatically whenever you select any of the front defroster options, regardless of the settings of the temperature ****.
2) is there a way to select any of the front defroster options without having the a/c being turned on?
I know its really no big deal, but its just one of those little things that bug me, I hate anything that comes on automatically!!!
Anybody with a 07 accord know anything about this topic? Please leave a msg, thanks in advance

I'm pretty sure if you had left the temperature on low last time you used it and had just hit the front defroster, the ac will come on.

Re: 07 Accord a/c comes on by it self? (Accord1234)
thanks for the reply....
actually i had the heat blowing full blast, somehow i believe that the a/c comes on regardless of the temperature setting. It just comes on whenever any of the front defroster functions are selected.
Just to make sure, i had the heat on full blast again today, selected front defrost/foot.....and the a/c does kick in and the a/c drain is dripping.
I just want to know if this is normal....or there is something wrong with my sis's car....
anyways, thanks for the reply...

If it is set to defrost or defrost/floor the A/C will automatically come on. It does not matter what the temperature is set to the A/C will still do what it does best and remove moisture from the air.

Up thru 2002 the AC lamp would come on, & you could switch the AC off.
Our 2003 Accord DOES run the AC when you select defrost, the lamp doesn't come on, & there doesn't seem to be any way to turn it off. I don't like that "feature"!
