for heated seats, for vehicles with left or right-hand steering, with a button - C - with the ECON ON /OFF function, or just an ON /OFF button).
‹› On the Climatronic Control Module (J255) A/C control head "Comfort" version - A -, both control knobs - D - can be pulled off and thereby be
replaced individually.
‹› For a faulty measurement by Instrument Panel Interior Temperature Sensor (G56) (installed only on the Climatronic Control Module (J255) A/C
control head "Comfort" version - A -), check intake grille - B - of trim panel for the Climatronic Control Module (J255) A/C control head, (it must
not be closed) and function of Interior Temperature Sensor Fan (V42) => Vehicle Diagnosis, Testing and Information System VAS 5051.
