Default After changing cabin filter recirculate air and fresh air is the same.

Hello all

After changing cabin filter recirculate air and fresh air is the same. Outside smells come through on recirculate air and it didn't before I changed the cabin filter. Is there something that I did wrong? Any insights will be appreciated.


Thanks

Did you put the system in recirculate mode before changing the filter?

Ugh that sounds like it might be the issue. I didn't check to see if it was on recirculate I always keep it on that but it switches by itself all the time

Thanks
