Weird...

I was considering this just last night while putting a new electric fan set in the Neon.

Since the fuse for the AC is underhood, I was just planning on putting it on a rocker switch so that I could pick and choose when to run the AC since the new fan control module does not activate the fan yet. Then I thought...why not leave it that way for the winter.

I ran the wires last night, but the auto parts store was out of the switches to match the ones I currently have installed, so it will wait a day or two.

I feel a little dumb about not coming up with this before since I helped a buddy of mine put his AC on a rocker switch on his 2000 Protoge because the PO had some "intersting" wiring going to it and some auto controls missing. It works fine and is "on demand" and he can even turn it off on some of the long hills around here.

Oh well, better late than never.....

Jim
