'00 XJ HVAC question
I've got a 00 XJ Sport with AC. It's way too cold here and yesterday I
tried turning the HVAC selection **** to the recirculate setting on the
AC side (9 o'clock on the dial). I found that as long as the temp
setting is on hot i get hot air. Does anybody see a problem with this?
Is my AC compressor still running but being overpowered by the heater?
Thanks
Mort

Yes, it is acting as a dryer, for sure in the defrost position.

Re: '00 XJ HVAC question
For what it's worth, on my subaru I disconnect the compressor and pop the
relevant fuse that turns on that second electric cooling fan that's ac
related over the winter. Mainly because the subaru suffers noticeable power
loss with the ac on. And at say -40 C tooling down the highway, seems
ludicrous to have the ac running ... and a cooling fan. As Bill says, it's
great for drying ... like when you and yours and their buddies are returning
from the local pool on cold winter days. But with the jeep, no noticeable
loss of power :-)
