Switch to computer climate control.
I've searched the forums and couldn't find jack on this. I got a 98 LS with the regular climate controls. I found a 98 LT at a salvage yard that has the computer climate control. And i would like the have the computer climate control in mine. But is it as simple as changing out the control unit itself. Just wondering if anybody has ever done or tried doing the switch. Any help is appreciated, thanx.

i would deffinetly assume it isnt soo simple, alot of the mechanical systems are controlled with levers and air hoses... the electrical arent(as far as i know) its seems to me that it would be alot more then its worth

Re: Switch to computer climate control.
I have a 98 LT with the auto climate control and HATE IT!!! I've done a little searching on the web any many people have issues with them and no one has a cure. I either get full heat or no heat. Be thankfull you have the manual control.

Re: Switch to computer climate control.
It works perfect (knock on wood) in my Silverado and Yukon. But, it is something I could live without.

Re: Switch to computer climate control.
I have had my dash taken apart but i cain't remember if there was wires or what on the back of the temp controller. But i do like the computer climate control, mom had it in her 2000 LT and i loved it. But if i have to replace a lot of stuff to get this done then i ain't even gonna worry bout it. I think i'm still gonna get the control and see if it will just plug in to replace the manual one. Thanx anyways.

Re: Switch to computer climate control.
A crude but effective method would be to just hook up a thermostat control to your heater on and off switch.
It would take a more than a automatic control to change it over to a automatic heat control system. The link below will show you the two different systems. MT http://www.alldata.com/products/diy/index.html
