A strange problem for sure. Thanks.

Hello, Joe. Dunno' for sure, as I have one of those obviously superior US of A
machines, but after my infamous Atlantic Ocean dunking a year ago; & dehumidifying the interior for a week, & still finding SOME moisture beneath a carpet six months later, & having the entire wiring harness re-soldered (front to back), let's say the car has been subjected to the equivolent of a foggy month in olde London towne. Through all this agony, the climate control system has continued to function properly.

Perhaps the Isle's importers chose to include the Lucas Wiring Option to preserve its "stiff upper lip" character.

Best o' luck!!!

Ron.
Stiff upper lip, you think? So my climate control might respond to a shot of Viagra, then?

I dunno either Ron, long shot.

Strange enough, like Trevor's situation, it improves every day with use. It is working all the time now. That's why I suspect damp and humidity, I think perhaps Japan also suffers from weather. Another possibility is road salt on the ambient [outside] temp sensor. The Brits are buggers too for salt on the roads, English cars rust.

I'll find and clean up the sensor and keep y'all posted.

How've you been? have not seen you post in a while.

Joe
