Default 1999 Chevy Heat/AC Control Problems

I'm having intermittent issues with the heat and A/C controller in my 1999 Silverado:
  • Lights for recirculating and fresh air are both out (one or the other should be on)
  • A/C light stays on and I can't turn it off
  • Rear defrost button doesn't do anything
  • Defrost/dash/floor selector doesn't do anything
  • Temp selector doesn't do anything, all I get is cold air
  • The fan speed control DOES work though
Sometimes it works normal, sometimes not. Any ideas?? It's still winter here and I need my heat and defrost!!

First if you have access at a scanner check for body control codes,,(BCM) if no codes then check for a blown fuse?? ma be cig lighter?? of a constant feed to the control switch...if you have a good ground and all the power leads have power suspect the whole control unit...they are between 90 and 150 bux for a new one and are common to fail..

Not a blown fuse because it's an intermittant problem. I have a scanner, but I'm not sure it reads body codes. I'll check.......after the race is over
