A/C in winter

[Dave O]

I live in Florida do I need to cycle my heated seats and heated steering wheel periodically?

Heard it is advisable to run A/C in winter once a week for lubrication, necessary or not anymore on newer vehicles?

Page 125 in my 2023 owners manual.
Not one word is mentioned about storage.

It can be so short, you wont notice it.
But it gets the job done.

If it's not 2 mins all at once, it's not getting the job done. You can do what you wish, it's straight out of the manual though.

I watch this and when it comes on it turns green. It doesn't turn on hardly ever in the winter for me. And no, it's not broken. It works fine.

In the summer, yes it will turn on even with a/c button selected off to reduce the moisture buildup inside.

Oof, welcome to 1970. Do you need a time machine? No, you don't need to do that, I'm not even going to get into the specifics of why that's silly.

I need that time machine back to 1994 if that's cool -)

No...but make sure to use the blinkers AT LEAST once a week. Sometimes they tighten up in colder weather.

Are you using the correct viscosity turn directional fluid? Maybe synthetic would help?

Not necessary. I havent done this in my 16 year old ram and the air still works fine.

No problem! I’m over 60 so I have my left blinker on all the time. Just have to remember to use the right once in a while.

Brings up my wife's comment all the time " Old Man your blinker is on".
I thank God for her ,for otherwise it would be on all the time.

I get out once and a while to make sure they are still working, Police do not like it when they do not light up, especially when you are turning.
