    It's been such a mild winter that this week is the first time we've really needed the heat on in the car. The current cold snap has caused the question to arise: When the "climate screen" is on, and the AC button is lighted up, does that mean that the air conditioning compressor is on? My husband says yes, I say no.

    The yellow light only means the compressor MAY run as needed, not that it IS running at that moment.
