1997 E350 cutaway. AC runs continuously

My AC runs continuously weither or not it is selected. Engine warms up circulates but no heat. But ac compressor runs and is cooling cab. V10. Any ideas? I will start tracing out the wireing circuit.

Sounds to me like the clutch lock up circuitry is amiss somewhere---get a bona fide Ford OEM electricial schematic book like in the link below---it makes life a whole lot easier when trying to decypher such issues.

1997 Ford Econoline Truck EVTM Shop Manual : eBay Motors (item 390156457794 end time Oct-10-10 12:28:50 PDT)

That's the exact manual you need----everything's in there! This particular copy is beat to death but I've used this seller before and they'll have a few nearly new---ask them first and it'll be a fair price.

They should also have a complete factory service manual on CD-ROM which includes the schematics---I have one and its been quite useful many times so far.
