'06 svc manual

looks like there is two fuses that power the HVAC module... (A/C controls)

HVAC/PWR SEND
ISRVM/HVAC

both are 10A fuses... from BCM (i would guess thats the passenger floor area - Blower fuse is under hood)

Plan A: if you can find get a hold of someones (a friends Vette) HVAC module swap it out to test if it works.... buy the part and change it yourself.....

i would think the dealer will find the water damage and charge a pretty penny to swap it out....

Plan B: take it apart... clean and dry it out.... take to dealer... fix under warranty

Plan C: take you chances... drop off at dealer....

Plan D: trade it for Z06

i personally like Plan D!!!

hope your able to get your A/C working soon.... good luck

Lets see, 300 volt backlight voltage shorts to 3 volt microprocessor via a sugary liquid. That can't be good. You just bought yourself a HVAC module.
