Figo Climate Control Failure

I've got a weird problem with my 2018 Ford Figo, gasoline engine. It's done 166846 km. The climate control panel is dead. There's an error stored, the heat is weak, and the AC won't kick on. I'm thinking it's a bad cable or plug. Any ideas?

Sounds like climate control blues! Those symptoms point to an electrical fault, probably in the wiring or connectors. Did you check the blower motor fuse? A blown fuse can cause this. Also, check the electrical connectors to the control panel. Are they tight and clean? Like a loose garden hose – no pressure gets through.

Thanks! The fuse is good. When I check the connectors, is there a specific spot to focus on, or a good way to spot corrosion?

Since the fuse is okay, the problem is likely in the climate control circuit. Check the connector going into the climate control panel and the blower motor resistor connector. Corrosion can be subtle – look for greenish or whitish stuff on the metal. Wiggling the connectors while the car is running might give you a temporary connection if it's a bad contact, but be careful. Given the error codes and symptoms, a workshop with the right tools might be best. Sounds like you've gone as far as you can.

Thanks for the help! I'm taking it to a shop for a proper diagnosis and repair. Your advice was a big help! The repair was 95€.
