True story. In my experience the servo did a surprisingly good job, until it started to leak coolant. An impressive concept (all mechanical) but poor implementation. Unfortunately, the plastic shell and a seal were prone to leaks and cracking, critical parts were not replaceable. Jim Cathy

In mine, with the servo stuck and unable to park, it drew about 400mA at rest, so it would kill the battery in a couple of days until I pulled the fuse (I think it was inline, not in the fuse box) to kill the climate control. Mitch. > On March 4, 2018 at 12:25 AM Curley McLain via Mercedes >

Well, I'll try to relate to my experience: I asked him about the heat and A/C. He said the A/C doesn't work. This could be one or more of several things: fuses, compressor, low on Freon, or the servo.<<< He started the car and said that the heat had defrost only. This could

The servo does everything. It controls the coolant flow, it turns the compressor on and off, it controls the vacuum to the flaps. It and the cc amp control control the whole system. Sent from my iPhone > On Mar 3, 2018, at 11:11 PM, Craig via Mercedes wrote: > > On

I know that the later HVAC ACC II systems are designed to default to defrost with any major fault of the control system, so I'd be suspicious of the main push button unit in the dash, but that may not be the case for this system. Somewhere I have a schematic for this system. -- Max Dillon
