I was having problems with my blend door awhile back and it turned out to be the actuator was bad. But i put a controller from junk yard because i was having problems figuring out the problem, but now the ac kicks on when u turn it to face and floor and when u turn it to defrost and floor?

 

I thought the controller was missed up and put my old one back on and it does the same! 

 

Is this correct or do i have a problem, i have to either turn it to face or floor for ac not to kick on.

  • That is correct.  The AC doesn't kick on when in floor only or face only.  I believe what you are describing is correct.

I spliced a wire under the dash hvac controls and put it on toggle switch, so I can turn ac compressors on when I want. 

@IBMobileis who came up with the idea.

I have often thought about this and part of the reason I like the early 2nd gens more.

Where is the thread that @IBMobile put this in?

Make sure you read to the end we changed a wire to splice a few times.

I think i want a 3 way switch so i cut light green/white wire and run it to #2 on 3 way switch and run ground to #1 on 3 way switch, then run light green/white out of controller to #3 on 3 way switch?

Yes, that will work but you want to use a 12 volt single poll double through switch (SPST) also called an ON/OFF/ON switch.  If you can't find a SPST switch a double poll double through (DPDT) switch will due.
