for some reason I can't post a new thread,

Shouldn't the radiator fans come on as soon as you put the AC on? mine is not turning on, anyone know if there is a relay or A/C signal wire that could be faulty?

countless studies show that a/c is MORE fuel efficient than running with the windows down. Which means that you are losing more HP relative to the whole car's motion (this cannot be accounted for on a chassis dyno) with the windows down than you are with just the a/c running. Which reminds me... I got to go put my belt back on.

I have a quick question about th AC. I have in my Maxima The Climate Control Unit for the AC and sometimes the display works fine but 90% of the time the display is to dim to see. I have checked the fuses and all seem to be ok. Any Ideas would be greatly appreciated. Because i can never tell the temp i have set at.
