Why does the AC light come on when you hit the Auto button on the climate control. Is the AC really on or since it is in Auto mode it could just come on if the climate control needed to cool the car down? I just wanted to make sure I'm not driving around with the AC on in the winter and wasting gas.
I went back to the manual on this one and this is all that it said:
Automatic Operation
The system automatically controls the fan speed, air delivery, air conditioning and recirculation to heat or cool the vehicle to the selected temperature.
When the AUTO indicator light is on, the system is in full automatic operation.
I would think that even in Auto mode the AC light shouldn't come on unless the climate control turned the AC on. What is the point of having an on/off light if it's always on?
