Traverse Automatic Temp Control Failure

Hey, need some help! My 2013 Chevy Traverse with the gasoline engine is acting up. The automatic temp control is dead, and the computer's flagging an error. The AC won't even kick on! I'm thinking it's the HVAC sensor, maybe a dodgy cable or plug. Anyone seen this before? Mileage is at 131337 km.

Summary of the thread

A 2013 Chevy Traverse is experiencing a failure in the automatic temperature control system, with the AC not functioning and an error flagged by the computer. The issue is suspected to be related to the HVAC sensor or a faulty cable or plug connection. A similar problem was resolved by checking and fixing the wiring and replacing the sensor, suggesting that professional inspection and repair might be necessary.

Whoa, sounds familiar! I've got a Traverse too, and I had almost the EXACT same thing happen last year. Was the temperature reading all over the place, or just completely frozen?

Yeah, the temperature reading is just stuck! Did replacing the sensor fix it for you, or was it something else?

Turns out it was a bad connection. I'd try checking the wiring, but honestly, I ended up taking mine to a workshop. They sorted it quickly, new sensor and all. Best to get it checked out properly.

Thanks a bunch! I'll double-check the connections myself first, but I think I'll follow your lead and take it in. Sounds like that's the safest bet. They say it is the defective cable or plug connection, and will cost me around 95€. Cheers!
