Hello everyone, Ok today was the coldest day since I first got my Ranger, so obviously I had to use the heat. With the knob turned all the way on heat and the other knob selected on floor it blows heat awesome, but I noticed that even while the heat is on I can still hear the A/C pump cycling. I know it is not the blend door because I can turn it to heat and get hot hot heat and turn it to cold and get freezing cold air. I know the A/C should come on when defrost and A/C is selected, but it still comes on when things like floor and bi-level are selected too. It just seems like there is somthing not telling the A/C to turn off when I have the heat on. Hopefully some one has a few ideas as to what the cause may be, any other questions feel free to ask.

On Rangers, the A/C pump cycles on every setting except when the 1 level vents and floor vents only are selected. I've talked to a couple of my buddies at Ford and they said they did this to dry out the air and prevent moisture buildup. Cycling is normal on all settings but the ones I mentioned above.
