Steve, but what about the intermittent issue.

Addbhp reports that his climate control works, then stops working, then works...etc.

Mine did not work and then it started right back up after I began to push more button on the climate control unit. It is still working.

I have read elsewhere that the contacts inside the control unit sometime fail and have to be resoldered. Have you heard about this? Is it possible to resolder the contacts or do you just replace the unit?

I've seen rebuilt climate control units going for about $250.00 or so.
