W205 climate control switches stopped working.
Hi, been a few years since I was last on here, but still going strong!
Been out in the car today and the row of climate control buttons below the centre air vents have just stopped working. No lights, no functions.
everything else seems fine. I’m about to check the fuse but wondered if there were any known issues as I’ve searched and nothing came up.
Any pointers appreciated Thanks.

Bit of an update.... i pulled at the centre panel, gave up, turned ignition on and it works again!
so, could be just a blip or a loose connection. I’ve looked online for a video on how to remove that centre panel, but they are all for auto’s and as mine is a manual the panel facia is totally different. It seems to pull forward a bit from the bottom, but can’t get any other movement. And advice appreciated!

Last week on a drive I noticed that my screen said "Climate Control Off" even though the system was running. Going into the climate control screen and checking the box to turn it back on didn't work either.
What was strange is the fact that I could still adjust the temp up or down and the fan/temp at the vents would change, but no visual indication at all that it was accepting my input.
One restart later and all was back to normal.
