Default air condition on and off

I have a weird aircondition issue. Even when the **** is on off it turns on and off by itself. I have to constantly turn it on and then off again to see if it would stay off?

My compressor orfan when the ac is on seems to be really loud and coming on much too often? That doesnt seem normal.

What do I need to do or look for to resolve this issue?

If the switch is off then it shouldn't come on at all.
You might have a climate module going bad.

Any idea how much that would cost me?

Another question, my info centre doesnt seem to work right. On my dash it always displays the temerature outside but not the fuel economy or any other stats it used to provide. Any idea why this suddenly happened?

Sorry but no idea.
There might be something electrical shutting that and the A/C system down.

I have the same exact issue. It started with the A/C, we replaced the blower (It never really got fixed, it only works on high). And the INFO Centre will not switch from Temp, unless it is running low on gas, then it will show 25mi -> 0.

Still having this issue, no one else is? I have replaced the blower resistor as well. Still same issue. When you first crank the vehicle it displays how many miles left in the tank, then it only displays the temperature. Any ideas?
