Default Dual Climate Control Issues

Hey I'm not sure if this is in the right forum and if its a repost. Sorry if it is. I am having a problem with my dual climate control display fading in and out. It really doesnt have a pattern to it and it is really annoying whenever it comes to turning on the heat. Thanks for any help.

I had the same problem and some of the buttons wouldnt illuminate. I bought a new module at the parts dept. Now its bright and no problems. You will be glad once you get a new one. good luck

I think it was $250. I have heard of some buying them for $150 on Ebay but i was unsuccessful in locating that price. I know its steep but its worth it when you turn on the car and all the lights lite up clear and bright !

The climate control is an easy swap-out.

Before you spend the money. Take the old one off and try to clean the contacts between the unit and the wiring harness. I had a problem with mine and this did the trick.......that was over a year ago.

Well this is what confuses me.... the heating/AC works on it but the display is the only thing that doesn't. Thanks for all the help guys.

Well I took it all apart and cleaned it and everything but still the same results. It looks like someone had done it in the past because of the screwdriver marks on the sides. Oh well. Hope I can find one for a decent price. Thanks Ls1Rat
