The following information is to be added to the 1989-90 Eighty-Eight and Ninety-Eight Service Manuals.
The Heater and A/C Control Assembly on vehicles equipped with Electronic Air Conditioning (C68) can be programmed to display the external and
programmed temperature in degrees Celsius, instead of degrees Fahrenheit, when the ignition switch is turned to RUN. Vehicles being operated primarily
in the United States should be programmed to display degrees Fahrenheit, while Canadian and exporl vehicles should display degrees Celsius.
To have the temperature displayed in degrees Celsius upon power-up, a wire connects terminal 11 of the Heater and A/C Control Assembly to ground.
This wire should not be present in vehicles operated primarily in the United States.
If a vehicle is received that displays temperature in degrees Celsius when the ignition switch is turned to RUN, the Heater and A/C Control Assembly can
be reprogrammed to display degrees Fahrenheit by removing or cutting the wire that connects terminal 11 to ground.
Be sure to tape the cut ends back to prevent shorts.
