mine AC doesn’t work all the time… when i’m driving, sometimes it turns
on and off by itself… and when I try to turn on, doesn’t work…. and
sometimes the luminosity appears weak(and does not work again).. Is that
what I need to do to fix this problem ??? Thank you!

Can i just change the climate control from manual to digital? Is there any
part i need to change too?

! Thank You

Nice video. Thanks. But perhaps you could turn off the Mr. Bean music on
others? lol

I have similar issues and rooting around on the web the consensus seems to
be that your FSU unit is on the fritz. Just do a search. It’s similar fix
to this but no soldering. I wish us both luck.

know of any way to power on the unit as if on a TEST bench ?

0.47 (What?) 50V non-polarized … can’t understand.

Hello, I had a mad climate control unit, it had a mind of it’s own. I
followed the video and changed the capacitor, now the unit seems to
function perfectly, all the buttons, the display etc, all except the actual
blower/fan, the display responds to the control buttons but the fan doesn’t
blow. Before when the unit had a moment of normaltiy the fan did work, but
since I did this repair the fan doesn’t blow.. Any ideas..?

Where do you buy the capacitor?

I want to thank you and Barry Hasenkofp who basically shows the same
repair. My temperature control unit was acting up. On-off,some part on… a
mess. I asked companies to do it for me but they said it wouldn’t work so
for $10.80 I bought a solder iron, soder, soder sucker and a resistor.
Carefully watched both your videos and 30 minutes later: BINGO! Back in
business. My suggestion: squeeze the housing (left/right/left/right etc) to
pull the circuit boards out. Thanks again!
