How to: Disable AC when using defrost S2000
This has driven me nuts for a while and I finally found the writeup that worked...figured some other people might be looking for it too! There was a CRV one out there, but it wasn't clear what to do on the S2000.
It lets you run the defrost setting or defrost/foot setting without turning on the air conditioning. I rarely actually need to defrost or defog my windows, so this is great for me.
If you actually have fogged windows, you'll probably want the AC on to take the moisture out, but it's nice to have a choice!

This resets back to automatic when you pull a battery cable, so keep the instructions handy!

To deactivate automatic a/c feature on a 2002+ S2000:
1) Turn the ignition switch "on," but dont start the car.
2) Turn fan speed off.
3) Turn temperature knob all the way to the left (blue area).
4) Turn vent knob to all the way to the left (panel position).
5) Turn the ignitions switch "off."
6) Hold down both air recirculation button and a/c button while turning the ignition switch "on." Nothing lights up initially, keep waiting. The orange air recirculation indicator on the button will start flashing.
7) Continue holding both buttons until the orange air recirculation indicator stops flashing, then let go.
