jcniest5 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I want to know if this is normal. When I switch the heater from Defrost to Defrost/Heater, my engine rev up quite a bit, actually forcing the car to go if I don't step on the brake hard. Is this normal or is there something wrong with my 91 Legacy AWD Auto non-turbo? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The defroster run the AC compressor, Air conditioning take moisture out of the air allowing the defroster to de-fog the windows. This is normal.

jcniest5 Posted September 23, 2004 Author Share Posted September 23, 2004 From some funny reason, it wouldn't do it when I switch from Heater to Defrost, only does it when switching from Defrost to Defrost/Heater (the bi button). Thanks for the info, though. It's good to know there's nothing wrong with my work car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legacy777 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 The engine rpms are going to jump up a little.....they shouldn't go way up. If you're in neutral and do the switching thing. What do the rpms do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do the rpms do? Going from Off to Defrost, the rpm does not rev up (I think), but from Defrost to Defrost/Heater, it would rev up. I will do a more thorough test switching between them and see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
