4. Replace Climate Control Module (if needed)
  • Once the dashboard panel is removed, unscrew and detach the climate control module.
  • Disconnect the wiring harness from the module.
  • Install the new climate control module by reversing the removal steps.
  • Reconnect the wiring harness and secure the module in place.
5. Reassemble and Test
