I know it's cold ❄️🥶 outside......but don't you think setting the climate control to 137 degrees is a bit too hot 🥵🔥.

.......or is that displaying the time ⏰ and it's 1:37 where you're at.

What seems to be the problem? No fan? No heat?

I have heat and all.. and it blows just fine. I replaced the blower and the relay next to the blower but problem still exists. I can not shut it off. The "off" button does not work at all and the up and down arrows for the blower work, they go up to full blast, but when I go down it only goes as far down to where there are still 2 bars showing and the blower is still on, low, but on

The off "switch" for lack of a better word might be faulty. The contacts might need cleaning.

i suppose taking the panel out and giving all the leads can not hurt..at least it will eliminate that possibility at the least

It's possible there's a micro-switch behind the button. If so, it should be replaceable. If it's like the cruise control stalk, there's no switch inside, other than metal contacts that send instructions to the computer. One of my contacts fell out of the plastic holder. I put it back in and it works like new. Only other thing I can think of is corrosion on the contacts. Contact spray might fix it.

If all else fails, you can get a used panel online. Good luck.

As 62Fender mentioned it's a faulty panel with the Off button no longer working. My AC panel also started failing. The button to raise the fan speed failed. So I ordered a used panel off ebay and replaced the whole panel which includes the display panel as one piece. Good as new again.

Make sure to get the correct panel for your year. I have a 2005 tC and I was sent a 2007 and up AC panel which doesn't work with 2005/2006 years. It almost looks similar on the front. But the 2007 to 2010 version should say airbag on/off in the passenger airbag section at bottom right. The 2005/2006 version does not have the airbag text, it just says passenger.
