EC light is on when I start car and will not go off when pressed. If I turn the key back and turn to the right just before starting and press the EC button the light goes out. Anyone else experienced this problem? I was told that when B service is done this will go away. Thanks

I've heard this can indicate low pressure meaning the AC needs recharging, but I'm no expert !

This page shows how to display the HVAC codes. Post your codes and someone may be able to assist you in identifying the problem.

Hey MarcusF, thanks. I pressed the Rest button for five seconds what came up was a 1 on the right side and # 28, on the left and the 28 changed to 29, 30. I could not scroll through the code list. From the list of codes #1 is the in car temp sensor. Where is it located and is it easy it replace?

Most of the stuff at that site is in alphabetical order on the home page. The temperature sensor in with the other stuff that begins with T. Although some have said I should move it to the A-section with the AC stuff. At any rate, it may only need to be cleaned. This link may help.
