Dorman 599-210XD Patented Climate Control Module with Manual A/C Controls Assembled in USA Compatible with Select Models (OE FIX)

This unit fixed my long-standing problem of reversed temperature controls and inaccurate vent position/mode actuator settings. I have a 2006 GMC Sierra 2500 LBZ. One of the stock climate control temperature levers pulled out and broke. Replacing this with a used factory "compatible" part caused both right and left temperature/blend actuator controls to be reversed. The left blend door actuator was also either full hot or full cold with no mixing. It caused my vent control/mode actuator settings to be inaccurate. I tried the recalibration procedure and swapped out two stock used "compatible" HVAC control units and new blend door actuators with no improvement. After hours and hours of troubleshooting, this instantly solved my problem. I don't know how long it'll last, but for now it is well worth the money. The only con I noticed is I can no longer communicate with or troubleshoot the climate control system with my autel scan tool. This is presumably because the dorman unit has its own internal programming and automatically self calibrates. I'll hold onto my old climate control units and swap them in if I ever need to do any further testing with my scan tool.

. This one is tighter controls and all the lights work, it controlled the temperatures perfectly on both sides of the vehicle. UPDATE: the passenger side slider for temp adjustment fell off, nobody abused it and as a matter of fact I hardly have a passenger in the vehicle. I slid it down one morning aand noticed it was sloppy, then it fell out. Dorman needs to stop following the crappy manufacturers and get their quality control in order to make sure We the people are not buying junk repeadely for no damn reason other than to line their pockets with our money. Now , the whole unit stopped working except for fan speed control. The Rt temp is stuck on hot the left is stuck on cool ??? No defrost light no nothing. These are just poor quality the sliders are held in with plastic glue or something ??? Just garbage ! Where can I get decent quality ?

Got here on time didn't end up installing because the rear defrost botton didn't work and was refused return

I finally got a chance to put this in my truck works really well

Dorman could have spent a little more time in the design stages of this product Does it work yes !! Was it easy to install yes !! Does it mimicking the GM factory part from an assumed quality perspective NO !!! I WAS DISAPPOINTED WE ITH THE FOLLOWING 1 left hand rotary switch not smooth like factory one. Use a off shore El Cheapo switch that clicks loudly. Really poor back lighting illumination... I'm now on my 4th replacement due to illumination backlights dying in under 6 weeks hey dorman it's supposed to be a factory duplicate not make me feel like I cheated my self with this purchase !!! Graphics need improved to factory quality its all about some caring really dorman at $ 130 bucks what heck is another $15 to $30 gm unit costs whole lot more...even remains are more... are you seeing some realization like the deer in the headlights is really there. Good product idea but not a mature thoroughly thought out execution of the terminology of factory duplicate where looks and operation are concerned.

It broke.

I purchased this unit for my 2003 silverado. At the time my ac wasn’t working and these trucks are known for these climate controls. I replaced it as a last resort as everything else was already replaced. (Turned out to be a bad plug in the engine bay) long story short this new climate control worked fine so why not leave it in the pickup? So I left the new climate control in, today august 16th, 2021 the unit took a dump already and stopped working. No buttons would work, temperature would not change, and the vent control wouldn’t change. The only thing that worked as the blower motor control. Immediately after getting home I swapped back to my original factory climate control unit and it worked just fine. I followed the instructions when installing the new doorman unit yet after 2 months of using it the unit stopped working. It’s unfortunate timing as it does show that It is outside the return window, however be careful buying reman parts. I’ve never had good luck with reman parts and this is another example why I always buy brand new.

Been a few weeks since installed and still working perfectly. So far, so good and looks great. Easy enough to replace, but I would suggest reading the instructions as there are a couple of specific details that should be observed. Perhaps why others have had issues, don’t know for sure. If this unit fails, I will update my review.

Funciona excelente!! Gracias

Plug and play. Very happy with the look, performance and fit. 0 issues.

Excellent replacement to stock defective AC controller.
