Check if the selector dial is on the Defrost/Vent mode. If it is, this will
cycle the A/C since the Defrost mode requires dry air. (This is what the
A/C does to help defrost the windows.) I had that same problem until I
found out on mine...was wondering why the A/C was cycling itself and I
didn't have it on A/C.

Subject: DML: A/C Always On, HELP

Ok I have a question for you guys, you may have an idea of something for me
to check. My A/C is always on. Right now it is only 75 outside so the Air
Conditioning is not really necessary. And of course mileage will suffer
with it always on. My question, is there anything I can do that will fix
this myself. I really don't want to turn over my truck to the dealer for
repair. I determined that if I pulled out the A/C clutch relay the air
stopped working.

Thanks in Advance,
Chris
