Hello,
I am assuming you have tried pushing the off button on the climate control and that is not working correct? Sometimes the rubber layer in between the buttons and the PCB board gets misaligned or the carbon pill which completes the circuit gets dirty preventing some of the buttons from working.

Do you have electronic climate control or manual control ?
