My climate control OFF button is loose in it's spot. It doesnt spring up, and doesnt switch off.

I have the fan (on low) blowing all the time. Not a huge prob, but i would like to switch it off.

R33 S1 GTS-T

Has anyone pulled one of these units apart?

Any guidance before i attack it?

Here's a pic of the button:

Hey Tony,

This has happened to me before. A little fiddly to fix but a nice lil project nonetheless. Here's a link to a thread I've posted in about this:

good luck :yes:

Thanks for that. Just what I needed. :)

Search shmearch. Forum search hardly ever yields relevant results. :D

Look for the r33 stereo installation guide, that will get you to the AC unit. Unscrew, unplug, then undo ... dunno.. 8 small screws from the AC unit, and the front should come off.

If the other guide is what i'm thinking of, the button has popped out of its hinge-type clips. If they're not broken, you can just reattach the buttons and you're away!

Ok, thanks for the help all.

I've fixed the button now.

I've made a guide to help anyone with the same problem.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
