Default Wanting to buy a used Climate Control Unit - 03-23-2007 , 04:43 PM






I am wanting to buy a used climate control unit for an E-series 1996-1998
W210. Mine is stuck on EC so the air conditioning does turn on. Let me if
you have one to sell.

Thanks!

Climate control stuck on EC means something wrong with system. Have the
dealer do the diagnostic and fic it.

If you decided to swap out the unit, you will find yourself back to stuck EC
too... plus broken woodpieces as you tried to R&R the control unit.

How big of a job is it to go from basic heater unit to the climate control
one?

I don't know if it is possible. It really depends on how it is wired up.

Try getting the freon topped off. Low pressure is the number one
cause of that. That's so it doesn't kill the compressor.
