I must have done something silly while motoring home today...I looked down at the display for the auto a/c in Roxy and it said 20! hmmm...perhaps I pushed the magical button to teleport myself to Europe, or I found the magic button combination to switch from centigrade to Farenheit. Either way, does anyone know how to change it back? I checked the manual, no help. Did a search too...

I know I've done this before (by accident)... I think that if you toggle your onboard computer to the temperature setting and then hold down the button (on the turn signal stalk for the computer) you will get the display on the computer to switch from celsius to farenheit (sorry, that's a word I could never spell and there's no friggin' spell check on MCO :evil: ). That will also switch the display for the Auto AC.

I think that there's more than one way to do this...and the other way has to do with fiddling directly with the controls on the AC, but I forgot that. Also, if you have the Nav, the computer controls are set up differently, and I'm not sure about that one.

Press and hold (about 2 sec., or until it changes) the AUTO button on the A/C and the temperature will switch back to F. Press and hold again to toggle back to C. Easy to do by accident.
