I'm no expert, but from what I've read up on the auto climate control is there are resisters in the system for the different settings. You may have one that's blown so it might be defaulting to "hot" for everything. I don't have any info about how to go about fixing, sorry. I could be wrong on this entirely so hopefully one of the technicians out there could be of more assistance.

You gain wrenches as the more posts/replies to add to the site. Your title also changes. I haven't figured out the counts on replies equal number of wrenchs since I've only been an actual member since Oct '10 myself. If they have any other meaning I'm not aware of it, yet.

Sorry to dig up an old post but I am having this same issue. It recently had work done and the body shop is an hour away so I'd like to try and fix it myself. The climate control just blows cold air no matter what temperature. Also, when I try and switch to floor or defrost vents it just blows out the central vents. Did you figure out the solution to this problem?

I've had the dual auto climate control go crazy on me a few times. Once the horn stuck on at 2 am, disconnected the battery to turn it off. In the AM, the climate control didnt work. Took it to a dealer, they replaced it. for 363.00

 

 

Fast forward last summer, replaced the battery. CLimate control acted up again. Defrost only, one side hot, one side cold. I researched and pulled the HVAC fuse under the hood for 20 seconds, reinstalled, started the truck and let the controller self adjust. Took a few times but it finally worked. Do not touch the controller for a few minutes while it adjusts. The dealer ****ed me out of 363.00.

      GM Hard Folding Tonneau by REV review

      This is a really late reply but I just found this thread. They won't sell the hinges. I've gone 7 rounds with them. Their solution is to buy a new cover. I'm about to buy a new cover and it won't be a Bakflip. It also won't be from realtruck.com.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver.

      Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....

      Gas Prices

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.
