I was adjusting my auto ac and next thing i knew it was all showing the temps on it and the on-board computer in °c. how can i adjust this to return it to °F? I feel really stupid for doing something and not knowing what i did but i did it so can someone let me know how i can fix it?

 

Fascinating,

I've heard that it was a dealer only change, but obviously it's not. Do you remember how you did it? I much prefer Centigrade to Fahrenhiet scale.

You can change it yourself. Just hold down the ON (right side of AUTO) for a few seconds. That will do the change back and forth.

As I recall that's it. If that doesn't work, hold down AUTO for a few seconds.

woohoo, i just had to hold down auto for about 5 secs and now its all ok again. thanks for the help DiD

 

Too Cool. Love this car.

 

not a problem guru220.

It should be a little more intuitive to make that change.

 

Thanks DiD. I'm going to switch to centigrade. They
say the Canadian dollar is rising!!!

Well, we're all going to have to switch to metric in the next five years.

Wait, they said that when I was in grade school, too.

Reminds me of a conversation I had with a gentleman in Toronto a few years ago. He was a subscriber to the magazine I worked for at the time. I told him I was in Denver and it was early October. He asked if we'd had our first snow yet. I said no, but it was getting colder. He asked if it had gotten below zero yet. I said, no, it hadn't gotten that cold, but we had a few overnight freezes. Then we both fell silent as we realized we were dealing in different systems. We had a good laugh as I restated my answer that we had, in fact, dipped below zero.

I don't have auto AC.. just the regular kind. I just have the 2002 Cooper. Is there a way I can change it? I looked all over the manual and gave up. I am getting pretty good at guesstimating Fahrenheit temperatures!

 

Thanks for the info. Just held down the auto button for 3 - 5 sec. and it switched right on over; then did it again to reverse; then again over to the C scale. Oh what fun! Thanks to DiD. :smile:

 

aziandoll: I'm not sure how it works on the standard climate control.
