Default AC Temp will not change

I have a 1999 C-5 with dual climate zone. I can not change the temperatue or turn the HVAC off with the "off" button. I can use the AC button and it will shut off the compressor only. Has this happened to anyone else? Everything else works great. Help!!!!! Also I can adjust the fan speed, and the vents.

Gremlins!!!!
Try pulling fuse #27 in the passenger footwell. Leave it out for 60 seconds before you put it back. That will make the HVAC controller reset, it may or may not help. If not, you may have a problem with the controller.

This is what I was going to suggest but since you have done it do the fuse pull and see if it resets.

I have had a problem when it was cold on one side and hot on the other and this trick worked well

Thanks,Matt

Probably a bad controller. There is a place to send it for a rebuild, contact
digitalguy_1@charter.net.
Last I heard it was around $50-$75 for repairs.
There is also a DIY to repair bad solder joints on the circuit board. However, that may not be your problem. I would suggest contacting the above email to see what your options are.
FWIW, here's the DIY:

That's a bargain. A friend of mine had one go on his C4. Cost him over $700 to replace his controler.

Thanks for the info. As long as it keeps working that's a cold winter days job.
