I was thinking of replacing my manual climate control with a digital climate control. I have a 2008 Chevy Cobalt. Was looking for advice, what do I need, which one would work, and has anyone done this?

 

that would be cool idk if it would be doable thou

 

Been k'ing, seems to be do able. Seems to need a lot of parts and man hours to place sensors throu out car, replace vents and harness.

 

I don't know why you would need to replace vents for a climate control we have vents to blow air through. Don't know what sensors you would need. My 2008 already has a cabin temp sensor. That's a start. What you need now is something to put all the pieces together.

 

k ing?

the thing is the current HVAC is digital. not 100% but digital none the less. so you would need the new "digital" hvac to send the exact same signal/data to the bcm for it to work. then of course add the temp sensors as you wish or as required. this would require reverse engineering both hvacs and seeing what lines up... for what doesnt idk


not sure if i still do but i may have all the information you would need regarding what the current hvac system does. way back in the day i was planning on changing hvac controls from a different gm vehicle and it never happened

 

That would be helpful, any information I can get will be helpful.

 

ok bump up this thread in a few days and ill post if i still have them. i know i have them in paper form but i may have lost the digitals

 

OK thanks

oh K'ing was to say checking stupid phone.

 

Been off seeing if you had the info. Been looking into the requirements for the placement of the digital climate control.

 

nah it hasnt turned up yet. im thinking i might have it on my laptop but idk if that even works anymore so. i knwo i had it on a USB flash but i cant seem to find it so maybe not

 

Thanks I'll keep checking it myself.
