Climatronic and outside air temp stopped working!!

[jamesuksheff]

Hi guys

Can anyone help with the above?  I was just driving along with the climatronic heating on auto when it switched off and wont switch back on again.  I also noticed the outside air temp on the dash now doesn't show a reading either.  I have a golf gti 2003.  I had a quick look at the fuses but couldnt locate a blown one...  can anyone help!!!?

Seems my problem has resolved itself (I hope) as its now working ! I wonder if it could have switched itself off because it was too cold outside - I recall it being about -5/-6 degrees c at the time!!! anyone else had this?

i did a bit of research on the a/c systems on the more modern dubs, as its packed in on our seat ibiza. from reading around problems can be caused by corrosion on the terminals on the fuse holder on top of the battery, which io think can effect the climate control. worth a look anyway!
