Default Heat/Air Condition

I seem to have a problem with the Passengers side air/heat control ****. It turns fine, but makes no change in the digital temp. numbers. I just replaced the outside Temprature Sensor but no stll no change. The air blows cold and the heat gets hot. Just no change in the digits. Anyone have any ideas. For what it's worth, I have no aptitude for Electical components. Othen then a Big Hammer !!! 2000 Vette

Welll..... its not going to, only the drivers side will change the numbers. The passanger side will not show and will only compliment a little one way or another, as to what the drivers side is set to.

Well i'll be dammed LOL I guess I didn't have a problem after all. I had a 2000 Pontiac Bonneville SSEI that had the duel a/c and both sides had digits and were adjustable.
Thanks alot guys, One less thing to worry about.

The driver's side adjuster is the primary one and only it, changes the temperature setpoint. The passenger side **** is essentially and "override" for the passenger so it either will match the driver's setpoint temperature or raise or lower it, for the passenger only. In the C-5's, the reaction is immediate. In the C-6's, it could take up to 10 minutes to make a difference for the passenger.
