What to do if your climate control is not working?
Instead a communication wire passes through all modules informing the HVAC module how the lights should be operated. However, since the problem exists only with the HVAC, it is the component to blame. The solution is to replace the HVAC control module since the lights are internal and cannot be replaced.
Why does my climate control go off at idle?
The system is probably low on Freon and when the car is at idle, there is no load on the system and it operates. On the other hand, while driving the system is under load making the pressure go below the low pressure cut-off switches’ parameter. This switch turns off the compressor to prevent damage in the event of a low charge.

How to recalibrate the HVAC actuator in a GM Truck?
For manual systems it does not matter where the a/c controls are set but if you feel the need to do something, turn the blower switch on (I prefer speed 3) and set the temperature sliders about .5″ to .75″ from full cold. For auto systems, press the auto button, with the key on. Turn the ignition off.
