Climate Control Replacement of a 2009 unit on a 2005 SL

My Climate Control unit on my 2005 R230 started to act weird. I purchased a used Climate control unit from a 2009 R230 and installed on my 2005 Sl (Same plug in the back). The seller assured me that it will work, and of course it did not work. It turns on for 1 second and it goes back to off. Has anyone done that swap before? any help you can provide, I would really appreciate it.

Note: The only button that works on the unit is the rear defroster.

I am planning on doing this same thing to my 04. I believe you have to set up the new climate control with DAS, at least this is what I've been told. I have yet to try on my own.
