is it normal for the A/C compressure on a 99 F-150 to run continuously even
when the heat or vents are selected ( A/C clutch will not disengage unless
switch for Vent, Floor, window or panel selection is in the off position) A/C
works fine but runs all winter not allowing cab to warm up properly
Question, how to fix it ( problem seems to be in the Vacuum module or

The compressor should only turn on if AC is selected. Make sure the knob for temperature is turned to hot/warm, AC not selected, and check again. Could be a problem with the control panel on the dash. Google how to check AC controls on net. To involved to explain here.
