Consumer Description
The Hvac heater control assembly and panel shorted out and melted all the components (wiring harness, connector, temperature control knob). All these parts need replaced. There's no AC, heat or defrost, etc...until this is fixed. Also this is a 16 year old drivers vehicle and could have resulted in a much worse incident if she had been driving it when it occurred.
