I hope one of you guru's can help me, I have a 2001 W203 C-Class 220CDi
I have repleced the standard climate control unit with the 'luxury' one with the digital display, it all works perfectly, controls temperature, and directs air at all the different locations, EXCEPT for one problem.
On the standard air conditioning unit you can control the temperature seperately for each side of the car, but only the up and down air location together on both sides. On the luxury control unit you can also control the up and down air location seperately for each side, but this feature does not seem to work, on my unit, it will only point the air at the direction set on the left hand contol knob. Temperature will correctly vary from side to side.
From other things that i've read on this forum, I don't believe that this is the incorrect unit, as by all accounts these do not work at all - or only blow air at your feet. On my unit, its only the ability to blow air in different directions on each side that doesn't work.
Could this be a 'version coding' issue ? - if so, who can perform this task, is it only Merc main dealers, or are there other people that will do it ?, does anyone know anyone in the herts, cambs, beds borders area ?
The unit part number ends in 09 85.
Any help appreciated,
Kevin
