Dashboard Environment Panel (Including Climate Control Module), Replacing

Dashboard Environment Panel (including Climate Control Module (CCM)), Replacing

Preparations

NOTE: Read off data from the control module before replacing the control module. This is carried out via VADIS communication. After replacing the control module, the relevant parameters must be programmed into the new control module.

Replacing dashboard environment panel







- Ignition off.
- Remove the key.

NOTE:
- The key must be removed to ensure that the ignition is not switched on by mistake.
- After the key has been removed: Wait 3 minutes before starting work.







- Remove the pen holder above the gear selector panel.
- Remove the panel (1) above the gear selector:
- Carefully pry off at the back using a weatherstrip tool.
- Remove the two screws (2) on the lower edge of the panel
- Remove the panel (3).

Note: The radio component and the dashboard environment panel are complementary and are mounted at the join with hooked mountings.

Hint: To facilitate removal: Angle the dashboard environment panel outwards so that it is possible to insert a couple of fingers between the center console and the dashboard environment panel.

- Pull the dashboard environment panel downwards at the same angle.
Hint: The dashboard environment panel is correctly secured. Force is required to remove it.

- remove the connectors. Lift out the panel.
- Install in reverse order.

Note: If any of the outer hooks break off, this must be rectified.

Tape the 3.5 mm thick component measuring 20 X 20 mm to the reverse of the dashboard environment panel. Use double-sided adhesive tape.
Fix the other side of the piece with double-sided adhesive tape so that there is a solid anchorage when reinstalling against the center console.

- Release the catches. Pull off the panel
- The panel has double sided adhesive tape. Ensure that any remains of the tape are removed from the black panel.
- Remove the backing from the tape on the panel and press the panel into place.

Finishing
After replacing the control module, the following must be carried out.
- Reprogram the customer programmed data
- Carry out self-adjustment of the damper motor end positions
- Test drive the car. Check that the function of the climate control system is OK
- Then check that no diagnostic trouble codes have been stored during the replacement.

Information about programming the control module, damper motor self-adjustment and reading off diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) can be found under VADIS communication.
