Hi all,
I'm fitting heated seats to my 2006 A3 Sportback at the moment and as part of this have installed a 2010 climate panel with heated seat switches. Problem is now when I press the AC button on (previously labelled ECON) the blowers stop blowing and I get no air con. Leave it for a while and turn AC off and the blowers start up with a brief blast of ice cold air. Obviously the AC does work just isn't being controlled properly.
I've read a couple of posts that say the 2010 climate panel isn't compatible with a 2006 heater but also have seen something about a way around it. Any ideas as I really want to keep the shiny new panel but need AC with summer on the way!
