Hi, I've got a weird issue, for some reason I don't have the climate controls showing up on the MMI3G+ display, all my controls are done through the control panel for the heating. I used to have a graphical display for the air direction, temperate, etc. but nothing. The only thing showing in the MMI is the AC option which shows auto recirculation and synchronisation. Can anyone please help, I've got VCDS so can change coding if required.

Many thanks

Are any faults showing when you do a scan?

Nope no faults, I should add that the MMI3G+ has been retrofitted over a concert stereo which did show the climate controls on the display, I'm assuming its some bad coding on my part but I'm unable to see any options on the information electric module.

Found a solution, its in the Auto HVAC module (07), go to byte 2 of the coding and enable bit 4. I came across an article where someone said that the climate module had to be changed to be compatible with the MMI3G+ system. Someone suggested bit 4 in byte 1 but its actually byte 2. Hope this helps anyone else

What is your new hvac coding and 1,2 or 3 zone climate?

Module is 8T2820043AF, 3 Zone climate. Coding is now 66140000

Thanks, i have one zone crap, so probably no luck with this AC menu in mmi, but i had it before retrofit with 2G low, will play with codes tomorrow, maybe luck will follow:)

Thanks Warp Speed for the coding. I've been looking for this for ages. It works great on my old 8T2 820 043 S three zone unit which I used with my concert radio before my upgrade. ;-)

No luck with 1 zone...but driving like this 3 years, did not know its even possible, so not much to loose:)...ac menu on the screen right lower corner will be there only for one sec when starting car and gone. AC menu will only stay there when i activate aux heat, but this aux vent is useless, but no climate controls. Not much player with climate anyway...

Thats unfortunate, but I guess if you're used to not having it on the display. Was it ever displayed on your screen, because I can't imagine it wouldn't be possible if you had it displayed before.

Im not fully sure, as it was 3 years ago, but i belive i had:
This picture is from basic plus car(should be one zone, as temp on the screen), but maybe he has auxheat, thats why climate in the menu. I cant find proper picture(red screen ac menu in), but such is life.
Anyway im not worried, cant have it all:)...
