Default Digital Climate Control

What are my options on getting my Digital Climate Control fixed. Is there someone that does this service ?

What is the cost of a new unit for a 88' or what do used ones go for ?

thanks..

If you can't DIY, I'd go the ebay route or try Dr Dons doctordons.com

You can take them apart and clean all the contacts with alcohol and a pencil eraser.

What is wrong with it?? Too cold, too hot, display only works when lights are off, etc..PM me if you don't have a FSM and I'll try to help with a specific problem because I have a damper that doesn't work,and the control is not the first place to look.

I don't have a FSM yet.. working on that. And sorry, I should have been more discriptive on what wrong.. was just thinking replair or replace.. but DIY might work..

Display don't work about 90% of the time...Heat Up bottom is broken, but works... other than that... It does control all of the function and works even without the display.

Anyone know were we can get Button replacements ? (cold/warm buttons). I will try and clean all of the contact on my panel. But if I can get replacement parts, that would be great.

Are those for the manual controller or for the digital controller ?.. can't really team much from the site on description... but the digital one are a colored button (inside) and not a ****.

Might have to call them. thanks for pointing me in this direction.

There is a reason it isnt working, and most likely will continue to fail. These type of parts it makes sense to get a junk one that most likely works, take the best parts of each (buttons, lights, etc) and reinstall.
