Weird problem with air ducts

95 Max with Auto climate.

When I switch my Auto climate to "off", I still have air flowing through the duct under the dash (for the feet). Kinda like a vavle isn't closing and it's sending air because of the speed at which I'm traveling. Is this normal? I would guess not... How do I fix it? Thanks guys.

i don't know where exactly the button is located in the 95 but press the button that will make the airflow from the inside of the car. . .it should be right next to the front windshield button on the a/c. . .it looks like a little car with an arrow going to it. . .that will make the a/c take the air from the inside of the car & not from the outside. . . i hope you understand what i just tried to explain..haha

I know what you mean, but the problem I'm having is that when the climate control is OFF, Im getting air through that duct. Do you mean I chould put it on recirculate (that's the correct term I believe) and THEN shut it off?

By the way, I just checked and the airflow stops completely when the car isn't moving.

yeah, in order for it to stop you got to press that button. . .but just press it when you shut the acc OFF and you'll see the difference...
the reason it's not flowing when the car isn't moving is because the car isn't getting any air from the outside. . . when you're driving.... turn the acc OFF and you'll feel the breeze. . .press that button & it'll stop instantly. . .
