What's wrong with my AC??

6MT-Z34

Today while going to work my ac turned on at least 20 times and I had to keep on turning it off. I don't know if any of you had this issue? any suggestions?? Im planning on going to the dealership if this continues when I leave work.

Just randomly?

Did you possibly push the recirculate button? Or could something have hit it?

i dont mind it cause i have the a/c running all the time in auto mode. ive had a/c fail on a previous car due to not enough use. so in the days it's too cold to run a/c, i run the car in defrost mode cause it kicks the a/c on and keep things circulating.

At first I thought it was me hitting it while shifting and I was like wtf is wrong with lol. Then I was driving, windowns down and both my hands on the steering wheel and it will turn on automatically and as soon as I turned it off it did it again 4 times on a row. Then after a while it kept on doing to the point that I was like screw this, im closing my windows and driving with the AC on is 70 degrees out either way. But I still have to see if it occurs again.

Since nobody seems to know what's wrong, here's what I would try if it were happening to me:

1) Read through the Owner's Manual and make sure I'm pushing the right buttons and turning the right knobs. The HVAC controls in the Z aren't exactly intuitive.

2) Search for a reset procedure for the HVAC. Usually some "weird" combination of holding switches, cycling power, &c. This should put everything back to factory defaults. Edit: May not exist.

3) Kill the power to the HVAC controls for a few minutes to reset it. May require disconnecting the battery and resetting the ECM, BCM, etc.

4) Take it to a dealer.

Thanks Southark I'm probably going to take it to the dealership. On my way back from work it didn't do that but there was a weird smell a few miles after I left my job all the way until I got home. I'm going to call them to see when can I take the car.

No I wasn't using anything it was about 70 degrees out windows down.

I hope my AC doesn't fall I've only had the car for almost 4 months now
