Air Con rear

Post by Bogmonster40 » Wed Nov 02, 2011 11:55 pm

When i start my bongo up the rear blowers come on full blast - due to some miscreant ickle youth with sticky fingers playing with the auto button which is now stuck in.
Any ideas on how I can free this button from its (depressed) state :cry: I thought that was very clever.....

I used E45 moisturiser once to lubricate a sticky button.

Try a baby wipe and some spray (switch cleaner?).

Have you thought about adoption? :)

You can get replacement control panel quite cheaply from the Bongo breakers
