2001 Civic defrost/air conditioning

I recently bought an '01 Civic, my first Honda. When I turn on the defrost the air conditioning comes on. I understand this is normal for a Honda, but none of my other cars have done this. I constantly run the defrost in the winter to keep the windshield defogged and the car interior warm. Running the air conditioning decreases the MPG. Is it possible to disable the defrost from the turning on the air conditioning and how to do it?

Thanks.

And if it's too cold outside, the AC won't even turn on. There's a sensor somewhere that controls this, so the system won't be ruined.

Sweet . . I noticed that too. .

Good job. . unless this is someone that created a new name?? hehe. .

The DIY works. Just read through the thread and try it a bunch of times. Took me a while to finally get it.
