Disabling automatic a/c
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.
I've tried the above a couple of times but it just doesn't work.
Has anyone else struggled with this?

I thought this procedure was purely to allow you to turn the A/C off when the windscreen (or windscreen + footwell) is selected on the dial?
A/C still comes on when you first turn to one of these two positions, but you should have the option of using the button to turn it off after those steps.
