Legacy

  • 55,000 miles
2005 Subaru Legacy GT wagon with 55K started intermittently about Nov 1, 2008. The heating/ac display would go dead but the fan was on and kept blowing whatever temp was last selected but none of the controls would change it. Could not duplicate at the dealership so they didn't do anything. About 2 weeks later it went from intermittent to 100% dead. Radio still works and I've noticed that the radio display doesn't dim at night even though the rest of the instrument panels does. I cannot control any of the defrost or heating/ac controls.
