Unfortunately my car Heater A/C Control Panel LCD is broken, I mean only the screen. I accidentally hit the screen while I was pulling my guitar from the back seat .It shows many black lines that are almost covering the whole LCD!! everything is working fine except nothing can be seen on the screen.
I was told that I must buy the whole panel and it is really costly. I thought maybe I can replace only the screen? Is it possible? Or can I get any other car LCD and fix it into this panel??
Ford Excursion :: Heater / AC Control Panel Not Turn On Occasionally
The heater/AC control panel does not turn-on automatically after the engine is started occasionally, during this time none of the buttons are working and blank display. The only way I can get it turn back on is re-starting the engine, sometime it takes more than 1 re-start.
I thought the relay ? or the signal driving the relay has something to do with it. Where is the relay for the Heater/AL is located ?

Jeep - Grandcherokee :: 2003 - A/C And Heater Control Panel Switch Is Stuck In The Windshield Defrost Setting
I have a 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee with about 240000 miles on the clock. Words cannot describe how impressed I am by this car. However, yesterday I noticed that the selector switch where one chooses to direct the air output has failed me. It seems to be stuck in the windshield defrost setting, unable to redirect the airflow to anywhere else. I am however still able to control the temperature as well as A/C settings. The switch felt strangely 'limp' almost as though it is no longer connected to whatever engineering or witchcraft it is attached to behind the control panel. What are your thoughts on this? Could it be as simple as some mechanical linkage that has snapped off? Just to recap: blower motor, heat and A/C are not affected by this.

Honda Accord Special Edition - 72,000 mi.,4 cyl. auto - When I turn the control knob on to use fan or is it called the blower for A/C or heater nothing comes on. When I turn the control knob on with the cold motor not running and A/C button engaged (green light on) I hear the two fans under the hood come on for about 10 seconds and then shut off. Not sure if that is normal or it indicates something. I checked some of the fuses under the hood and under the dash. Could not find any that were bad.

View 10 RepliesFord A/C :: 2000 - Air Comes Out Of Vents But All Panel Air Regardless Of Temp Or Control Settings
Bought my truck (2000 F150, Manual, V6) used with 135k on it. In 3 months I've put 10k more on it and am starting to run into a weird A/C problem.
Driving to one of my clients, everything was working fine. When I left there was no A/C. I checked coolant, fuses, etc with no luck. We had a bit of a cold-snap and I also found out my heater didnt work. Air comes out of the vents, but it's all panel air, regardless of temp or control settings.
Took it to a mechanic who said the high-pressure switch was dirty, he cleaned it and the A/C worked at the shop. The moment I left the exact same problems started happening again. It's been back to the same mechanic, and today he tells me that the a/c clutch is drawing to many amps and shorting it out, at which point the PCM tells it to goto hell. He can get it working by resetting the computer, however, the moment I put it in gear it stops working (a/c, heat, all of it). He was able to put power directly to it and it run with no problems.
To me (very little mechanical knowledge) it seems like power, or the condensor. The mechanic said that the heat going out isn't related at all, which makes no sense to me because it's happened there in his shop where the heat will only work if the a/c works. Hes telling me I need either a new clutch or a new compressor altogether. Quoted me 300 and 1000 for each respectively.
Side-Note: The morning of the day when the a/c initially broke, my car turned off suddenly while driving. I was in gear and driving down the road like normal. I popped the clutch, turned the key and it started right back up. Also, cruise control seems to have stopped working and the eft blinker. If i hold the lever down (like push an extra 2cm) it comes on and works. It is sporadic.
Passat (B5) :: Display For AC / Heater Panel Quickly Turns Off
Ok, I just started to notice that when Im driving at night, the display for my ac/heater panel almost quickly turns off and then back on. It is fast enough that I thought it was me. Last night I sat and watched it for a few min and it stopped "glowing" for a split second then went back to normal.

View 3 RepliesHonda - Accord :: Instrument Panel Temp Gauge / Thumping Makes Needles Bounce Around
98 accord v6, when we first got it about a year ago the temp gauge was a little erratic. Sometimes it would stay all the way down (cold) after driving for awhile. You can take your finger and thump the plastic and it would jump up to normal. At first it was only temp, but now all gauges including gas level are not working. Odometer still works right but the speedo goes to about 45 and stays there. Thumping still makes the needles bounce around.

My 2012 Maxima has a combined heated/cooled driver's seat. In the heat function the heater will randomly shut off. If I shut the car off and then restart the car the heater function will resume. It happens inconsistently and I've not been able to establish a known pattern to predict the behavior. In February 2014 (under warranty) I had the switch, the heater module processor and heater replaced. In February of 2015 the problem reoccurred.
View 4 RepliesSanta Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: Battery Light On Instrument Panel Started Flashing - Alternator Dead
Last night, while my wife was driving, the battery light on her instrument panel started flashing. This morning the battery light came back on when she started the car. As she was driving on the highway, the ABS light, the stability light, and couple other lights came on, plus her she was losing power to her wheels. She said it then felt like the car was towing a heavy object and that there was no power going to the wheels or any other part of the car. She was able to drive it a few miles to a parking lot, where it died.
When she tried to restart it, she heard a clicking sound, but had no power and the engine was not turning over. She could not remote lock the doors because the all power was gone.
The tow truck driver tested the car and said the battery is fine, but that the alternator was dead. She had it towed to the dealer, who also says it is the alternator that is the problem.
This all occurred after we had a previous, and resolved issue, to the instrument panel (including the light around the cigarette lighter) and the taillights going out intermittently. The dealer disconnected the electrical connection to the towing package and the lights have stayed on since.
Seems odd to have an alternator go on a two-year old vehicle (we bought it new in Jan 2011). Could it actually be the alternator or something else?
Passat (B6) :: Hazard Lights Flashing Randomly?
The hazard lights (4 ways) have a mind of their own and will randomly flash once and then few minutes later it'll flash again.
I've checked the dash switch, did a quick clean with electrical contact cleaner, that's working fine.
Prius (2010-12) :: TPMS Keeps Flashing Randomly
I have a 2013 Prius with approximately 23000 miles on it. The TPMS randomly comes on flashes for a minute then goes Solid for about 10 minutes. On an average trip of about 100 miles or so it will go 3 or 4 times. I've taken it to Toyota to have them look at it, and they kept telling me that they couldn't find anything wrong and it has probably has something to do either with my tire pressure or my tire tread. I just did my 20K service appointment and they tried to tell me the same thing. after going back and forth with the maintenance tech, he finally admitted that the only hook up the car to the diagnostic machine when the light is actually on. After back and forth discussion I finally convince the maintenance tech to keep the car and drive it for a distance so they can see the light come on. The manual says if the TPMS starts flashing to have it looked at. But the problem is that the dealer won't work on it unless the light is actually on which is next to impossible since I'm always on the road when it happens. Has this TPMS issue ever happened to any other Prius owner?
View 5 RepliesFord Aerostar :: 1997 - Heater / AC Blower Turns Off And On Randomly
Problem solved- update! Found a main vacuum line, (white one), broken right above where the oil filler tube is. I guess if the plenum door is not in the proper position, it screws with the fan? Works like a champ now even with 442,000 miles on this van! --- 1997 aerostar, 3.0. Doesn't matter what I'm using, vent, heater, or AC. When I have the fan switch "on", The fan will shut off, then turn back on whenever it feels like. I've tried turning the controls on and off in any and all ways, and still random fan goes on-off when it's turned on. Is there a sensor somewhere that could cause this? Or what?
