    Hey guys,

    I just bought a 2018 TRD Pro and on the way home after buying it, I noticed I couldn't turn the fan off. I could change where it was blowing from(foot, dash, both, etc). I could turn the actual AC on and off. But when I turn everything off, the fan is still blowing and the screen still shows where the air is blowing out. Any ideas?

    The screen will always show the last position set, just no fan speed.

    If not on recirc it will blow through the cabin due to air speed from outside.

    Did you try hitting the button that says “OFF” on the climate control cluster?

    Hit the recirculate button and you won’t have any air coming out of the vents.

    Believe it or not, that was the first thing I tried.

    If that's the case, I feel better. I just assumed that position would turn off when I turned the climate control off. Quite frankly I assumed that whole panel would just be blank after I hit off.

    Thanks for the reply though! Was very curious.

    This. Hitting the recirculating button will stop it from blowing out of the vents. Was getting ready to trade in the truck before I figured this out...so hard to hit my crack pipe before.
