Victor,
Wondering if you ever got the entire thing working? I am very interested in doing the conversion . I want to get the auto climate control to work but I dont need the dual climate function, just single to work. I am thinking many of the innerds of the system need to be changed to get the DUAL climate to work, but maybe if I care only about a single climate control only a couple of other items need changing
Control module 13591693 perhaps?
BTW, I also get the 'auto' button to work. Just as you described, if you turn the HVAC unit completely off by pushing the fan button then click on the 'auto' button it does turn it on in auto mode. Does not seem to control the fan speed 100% correctly but its real close to working correctly. Temp seems to be controlled ok. And it switches from Dash air for cold to bottom air for heat which is what it should be doing. damn close!
I am going to try the inner control module 13591693 as I describe above which is the one for the auto temp control. It might just be what is needed. I'll report back. What I dont know is where this module is located! If anyone knows, please let me know.
