Wierd Electrical Issue
So I unlocked my truck to bring my daughter to school. The truck is off but yet the A/C was running. Wierd right?! Well I start the truck and run through all my electronic and everything is functioning properly. I put the truck in drive and the radio turns off. I immediately put it back into park and it turns back on. Guess it's something I can deal with for now, but I've never had an issue like this before.

A/C can not run unless the motor is running...you must of meant the blower motor was running. short somewhere but, like mentioned above most likely a GEM.

You're correct, the blower was running. I have a small leak in my windshield. I did some digging and I've found that this happen to a few people. The leak is apparently causing a grounding issue from what I've read. Guess it's time to have the windshield replaced, then I'll fix the grounding issue.

Yeah a corroded wire causing a short to ground.

I'll confirm that the blower motor runs when the GEM is wet. I've ridden that horse a couple of times. It will eventually get to where it tries to start itself, which will make you want to call in a Priest. Damn thing gets all possessed.

They get strange when the battery is going south as well.
