Default Climate control quit working..WTF??!!

It got down to 32 degrees last nite. this morning no heater, defroster, AC, nothing. Battery voltage is fine. I haven't checked any fuses or the codes yet, but what could have happened? The only thing I can't stand is not being able to fix all these electronic malfunctions!!! I've had the battery replaced because of a leak last winter, Main computer replaced, several other computers and sensors replaced, and both door keypads! Does it ever stop??!!!I'm not under warranty anymore. Wouldn't you know, just when I get it paid off...and it is garaged...help please?

With all that not working it may be one of the numerous relays that apply power to the different systems if it is not a fuse. Find out which one controls the HVAC and if there is a same relay on a different socket swap it and see if the problems moves somewhere else.

Mine took a dump 7 months ago. Systems were that the temperature couldn't be changed on the driver's controls. Always read 70--71 degrees. The passenger side could be adjusted with their control. Brought it to the dealer and they replaced the head unit.

When I ordered mine, I really didn't want that "fancy" dual a/c climate system. I just wanted the old reliable manual system. However, in order to get the fog lamps, sports seats, etc., GM threw in the dual climate control system with the 1SB package. It's just one more item that can break.
