The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this PI.

Condition/Concern:

Some customers may comment that the rear HVAC system defaults to full hot, high blower, and floor mode when the vehicle is started despite the rear HVAC controls being set to other parameters. This can happen after the following criteria is met.

  1. The ignition has been off long enough to allow the modules to go to sleep.
  2. The (AUX) button on the front control head IS NOT turned on.
  3. The Engine is started.

If each individual rear HVAC control knob setting is changed (Fan Speed, Temperature, and Mode), normal system operation will resume.

Recommendation/Instructions:

Do not make any repairs to try to fix this concern. Engineering is aware of the concern and is working on a fix. This PI will be updated when more information becomes available.

Please follow this diagnostic or repair process thoroughly and complete each step. If the condition exhibited is resolved without completing every step, the remaining steps do not need to be performed.
