    Is your digital clock working? Do you have any readout on the climate control panel? If the whole thing appears to be dead, it might be another case of the dreaded "hidden fuse" syndrome, where the 30amp fuse under the trunk lining is either burned out, or the fuse holder is melted.

    Yes, the fuse hasn't enough contact with the support, the plastic support burns.
    I had the same trouble on mine.
    I changed the fuse type with a audio system one and now, it is perfect.

    One other thought is the wire connector at the back of the HVAC control in the dash. My heat and ac would work and then stop. When I removed the unit the push in wire connector at the back just fall out. I noticed while pushing it back that it does not lock in tight and can fall out easily.

    Type "hidden fuse" into an advanced search and specify the 348/355 section and you will get loads of good info!

    The boy doesn't sleep either. He was up for like 3 days, and I keep telling him to log off, but he insisted on burning out his eyes staring at the screen, while chatting. He must have looked like a Vampire with how blood shot his eyes were.

    He also has chosen a profession that requires him to work underground... in the DARK. I'm not liking the sound of this!! :D

    My blower motor would come on at random, so I took the fuse out and boom! Problem solved.
