you can try cleaning it. I would bet that some soda or something has oozed inside the control panel.

You've posted this before - you need to be more specific: what doesn't turn off? A/C compressor - is it still engaged - lift the hood to verify if it's on or off. Blower Motor? If it's still pushing air out of the vents on high blower, that's usually in the circuit; not the dash panel. Can you raise and lower the temp? Control blower speed? Do the vents switch between Defrost, Heat and A/C?

Default climate Control Cleaning

Do a search on climate control. If your control buttons are not working or working consistently it's most likely your circuit board needs cleaning. I followed directions of removing the control module from the dash and cleaning the board with a pencil eraser and alcohol.

Give it a try if these are the type of problems you are encountering.
