No control unit's lights are functioning and no control over any of the buttons on the Unit(except the blower fan control ****)


The initial problem was exactly what is described here. Climate control unit used to blink , would make click-click kind of sound and then would go dead in 1-2 minutes. It would then work for the settings you had selected before it goes dead.


Now control unit blows hot air and pressing any button has no change.


I am wondering the wire soldering solution you have posted would work for my Car?


Please advise.


Thanks

Note: 1) I disassembled the unit, used contact cleaner to clean the circuit - No change.
2) I took my car to local body shop. They are asking me to replace Control Unit first. It means they are not very sure.

This little jumper fixed the problem, I had cool a/c once again.

I no longer own that car, but it worked when I sold the car.

Good luck.
