So my entire climate control and stereo control is acting very strangely. I will have everything off and randomly the heat will come on at full blast and I can't do anything to shut it off, none of the buttons will work on the climate control nor the radio. the radio will still work from the steering wheel control when it does this but not the main controls.

it goes back to normal randomly. it has done this a few times already. any help would be much appreciated.

 

The face of the radio which includes the buttons and the display are a separate piece from the rest of the radio. I suspect the connection came lose or is wet.

This thread has pics so you can see how the front is it's own piece. https://g35driver.com/forums/audio-v...ontroller.html

 

yeah, this entire section doesn't work when it happens. how the heck did it get wet or get a loose connection though?

 

the navigation above works fine

 

condensation possibly, wifey threw water at you for staring a short skirt hottie, I dunno, it's your car hahaha. but it is a common problem. time to get a new deck and heater controls

 

so I would need to get a new one of those^^^ pictured above? if this is a common problem is there a tsb on it? or a write up on how to fix it?

 

anyone?

 

you can just buy a new jdm controller look at riverside or grubbs infiniti. or you can just say screw it and buy a whole new deck and go with a metra kit or the full jdm kit with the a/c controller

 

why jdm? do you have the link to take a look at what youre talking about?

 

The JDM controller is just the top half, the environmental controls, so you can add an aftermarket headunit. You can't do an aftermarket radio without the JDM Controller, because the enviro controls are built into the radio.

 

how much would it cost just to replace that oem piece? and where can I order one?

 

I'm selling my old one on ebay, it's probably cheaper than the dealer. They prob want 300 just for the board..here's the link.

got to it too late.

is this easy to swap out? you guys sure this is the problem? I'd hate to pay for a new one and do the work on it only to find out its not the real problem
