I have a '95 'Vette with the electronic climate control system.
Unfortunately, the climate control has decided that it's always very hot in
the car and will never supply heat.  That's getting a little old here in New
England as winter approaches (perhaps a gentle hint to put the car in the
garage for the winter).  I've looked at the diagnostic codes but no errors
were set.  I've also noticed that the source of the air (defrost vents,
panel vents or under dash vents) doesn't seem to change as I change
settings.  A significant amount of air comes out of the defrost outlets at
all times.  It almost seems as if the controller needs its firmware
reloaded.

Does anyone have any ideas on possible fixes?

Kevin

Kevin,

We should trade, my 89 coupe only puts out heat from the dash vents at all 
settings except "Off". For me this began a few weeks ago and so made for 
some warm trips, I was thinking it's a controller/chip problem also. Btw, 
when I first purchased the car (new) in 89 a fault developed in a few days 
where the heating controls didn't work. A new chip under warranty fixed the 
problem.

Tony
