AC always on? Or at least it seems like it is?

Background -

- 2011 Tacoma.
- Auto Max AC disable performed (https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/auto-max-ac-mod.307481/)
- AC with defrost disable performed (https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/a-c-on-with-defrost.7160/page-8#post-2395617)

I did both of those mods a while back with no issues.

Now that its finally hot out, Ive turned the temperature selector to cold to use the vents to suck in ambient outside air.

When I have the selector on floor or dashboard and the temperature knob set to cold, the air coming out of the vents is ice cold. Ice cold as in it feels like the AC is on, even when the AC button isnt lit up. The AC drain leaves a nice little puddle on the ground too, which leads me to think the AC is on even when it shouldnt be.

Anyone else do those modifications and have this issue. I havent had a chance to really dig much into it yet. If I cant figure anything out, I think Ill undo the modifications and see what happens
