I checked the article on the PCM 2.1 install and I don't have any torx head bolts!

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1Original post

Hi, I used my car two days ago and on ignition the climate control was working fine. Within 30 seconds I noticed that it had turned off (air stopped blowing and unit seemed off). On closer inspection I found that the LCD had become extremely faint and was displaying the last climate settings I had on. I tried every button but the unit was completely unresponsive, like it had crashed. I drove for about 1 hr and nothing changed. The LCD continued to work when I turned the engine off and pulled the key out! The car was then locked and parked for 3-4 hours. On starting it up the climate control sprung into life and continued to work perfectly for the drive back. I thought that was the end of it but no such luck....when I used the car earlier today the climate control didn't turn on at all! I had a quick look at the fuse and it seemed ok (no melting) but 1) I don't have any proper equipment at the moment to test it properly, 2) I'm a novice when it comes to these things! If it could be a problem with the fuse, does the fuse box have a spare one I can use to check if the current one is blown? BTW my car is a UK '06 CS. I hope someone can help. Thanks

Have you checked the wire connector coming out of the back of the HVAC unit to see if it is perhaps loose or making a poor connection? It's either that or a defective unit from the sound of it...

POST 3Original post

Is there any way of checking the wire without having to remove the PCM and climate unit? I checked the article on the PCM 2.1 install and I don't have any torx head bolts! Thanks K-Man S.

Holy thread revival Did you ever find a solution to this. I'm having the same problem and this is the only refernce to this problem I have ever found.
