Paceman climate control issues
Summary of the thread
A 2015 Paceman with climate control issues was reported, including a dead control panel, minimal heat output, and non-engaging air conditioning. The suspected cause was a defective cable or plug. It was suggested to inspect electrical connectors for corrosion or loose connections. A technician later confirmed a faulty connector on the control panel, resolving the issue.

Thanks for the quick response. By any chance, do you have any diagrams on where to find all the relevant electrical connectors? I'm reasonably handy, but I don't want to start pulling apart trim unnecessarily.

Given the information you've provided, especially regarding the air conditioning and the stored error code, the likelihood of a faulty electrical connection is indeed high. Without diagnostic tools and schematics, pinpointing the precise location can be challenging. It may be best to have a qualified technician inspect the system to avoid potential further complications and confirm that the temperature sensor is working as expected.

Appreciate the insight. Turns out you were spot on. Took it in and they confirmed a dodgy connector on the control panel. Ninety-five Euro later and the air conditioning is blowing cold again.

The symptoms you describe for your Paceman suggest a potential issue with the climate control system's electrical connectors. The error code retrieval certainly points in that direction. Before assuming a component failure, it would be prudent to meticulously inspect all accessible electrical connectors associated with the control panel and blower motor. Are you comfortable performing a visual inspection of the connectors, looking for corrosion or loose connections? Has the blower motor been tested independently?
