if its desiel check the idle up[ solenoid itll b on the pump if u dunno wat your lookin for jus get someone else to turn the air con on and offf itll be the one moving it revs the engine to compensate for thr power the air con drains

You didnt mention what vehicle you have.

most likely an idle up soleniod/actuator adjustment issue.

Look for what is actuated, most likely via vacum, and then adjust accordingly.
