A/C comes on when defroster is selected
I recently had my stereo upgraded on my 06 Evo. I noticed after the install that when I select the defroster the air conditioner will also come on. The A/C light does not glow, but the idle speed increases about 200 rpm (from 1000 normal) and I can feel cold non-ambient air coming from the defroster outlets. If I select any of the vent positions the rpms are at normal level and the A/C does not come on.
So being a cause and effect guy I suspect the installer got something wrong. What should I look for in order to fix this? Yes, I do plan on taking it back to the installer, but I want to know what it is before I take it back.
Anyone have any ideas of what I should look for?
Thanks!

I swear that's normal... my 99ecplise was the same as is my fiance's mazda 6 my dad's odyssey and my 08 X.
maybe it was unplugged and when the stereo was installed he plugged it back in not noticing... maybe.
second opinions?
