Default dual zone climate control help

I am looking at a 97 c5 with a bad dual zone climate control. The owner says there is a company who will exchange out bad for rebuilt for about 150.00, but cant remember the name. Does anyone know of such a thing. I know my dealer cost is 800.00 wholesale, so this seems awful cheap to me. Thanks for any help.

Thanks. I emailed him to see if he can fix one that has more problems than just display. This one wont switch from different vents at times. other times it will only blow wide open.

There is a CF member Mandigital
That does repairs for about $45 complete with a 5 year guarantee.
His name is David Ruberg.
e-mail digital1_guy@charter.net

He did mine it works better than new...

Here is a link on how to remove it...

For removal of the unit follow this link and proceed up to step 3. It will expose the mounting bolts for the HVAC unit
