Sometimes I don't want to run the A/C in the Westy, but the air from the fans feels good.  On long pulls in desert heat, I hate to use the A/C at all, fearing overheating.  I've considered configuring a switch to keep the compressor from pulling in, yet allowing the A/C fans to move air around.  

Is there a downside to disabling the clutch mechanism on the compressor and let the fans circulate air through the system without the refrigeration action?

Thanks
