^ shows whats wrong.

Your car can display the heater level on a scale of 0-16 (0=cold 16=hot)
Your car will display this by hold the power button and the seek up button at the same time.

You can follow the fix above, or, take the temp control **** off and (very ghetto) jam some paper or something else in there to get heat until you feel like fixing it.

I just fixed this on my '04 last weekend. Took the circuit board out & soldered. If you're in/around Louisville, and too afraid to do it, come by sometime and we can take care of it.

Dealer will charge a fortune, as the circuit board is +/- $300 plus labor...
