Default Digital Temp Display Weak

My digital display for the Dual Climate Control System fluctuates from being readabile to almost totally faded out. Is it going or is there something loose?

I have the same problem. I am told it is a known issue but I do not know what the resolution is.

I'm curious to learn this as well.

It is a known problem.
Your choices are
1. Buy a new AC head unit form your local dealer for about $380 for the part and 4 hours labor at what ever they extort.
2. Buy a new part form Fred Beans for about $280 and replace yourself
3. Buy aused unit via ebay... about $165-175
4. Buy a fix from the forementioned repair person for $50 and do the removal/install yourself.
Basically the issue is cold solder joints. The repair specialists resolder all the suseptible contacts.
Do a search on HVAC and you should find some intructions of removal of the unit
