Climate Control - No Display
Periodically, after I start my 2005 F350, there is no display for the climate control and nothing works. If I shut down and restart the truck once or twice, the display returns and everything is okay. Any ideas?
Thanks.
Thanks.

I have this same problem. It only happens once in a while. I took it too ford one time for a simmular problem. The interior light would not come on when you open a door. That only happens once in a while too. Of course they never figured it out and it still dose it every know and again.

My 2005 F250 does the same thing. Once or twice a year it happens. I took it in the first couple of times and they couldn't find anything.

Holy cow!! Mine did the same thing on Thursday.
It has done it since it was new, I took it in to the dealer for warranty and the display worked every time, no fix.
I was told that the in-dash control unit was defective, the dealer wants $291.00.
I unplugged/plugged in the fuse under the dash and wiggled some wires and the display came on. Working ever since.
I found a used one in a wrecking yard for $95.00, never purchased since mine is now working again.
What is up with this?

I've had it twice on my '05. Once in Wyoming a couple years ago. Was not looking forward to a 1500 mile trip with the windows open. Restarted and it came back on.
Last time I pulled the fuse, reinstalled and it came back on.
More high quality parts. A whole 60K miles.
