87 Audi 5000 heater/airconditioner problem
My 87 Audi 5000 heater/airconditioner suddenly only works in the
lowest temparature position.
When pushing the temperature control buttons on the dashboard,
there is no response. The screen only shows: the letters "low"
My question:
Could this be the control unit (with the buttons on the dashboard)?
Or.
a thermostat, bad connection, etc. ?
Any ideas?

Re: 87 Audi 5000 heater/airconditioner problem
Sure you are not talking about a '97 rather than '87 ?
The '87 didn't have an alpha display, just LED indicators by the buttons.
Audi climate control system are rather complex so it could be a number of things
.. Most likely a problem in the controller (under dash) or the programmer (on
dash). Could also be wiring connections like a bad ground.
