Climate Control Went Haywire

[rmcrill]

Starting my Mach-e today, the climate control went haywire.
Driver's side resets to 60 degrees. If I change it, it just goes right back to 60 degrees. I can turn the fan down but not off and passenger side works normally.
Earliest service appointment I can get is one month away.

It's going to be a ridiculously cold month!

Anyone else seen this? Got any ideas?

Try rebooting Sync by holding the Volume Down button and the Next Track buttons on the right side of the steering wheel. Might be Sync being all plugged up. ??

Thanks for this. When I turned it off, plugged it in, and let it lock, it reverted to normal upon restart.

Did you just get an OTA by chance?

possible, I suppose, but I don't think so. I think the re-boot did it.

Happened to me once with my Volvo. It was summer in central California and the car was probably about 130 degrees inside (aka “mildly warm” in Phoenix). I turned the HVAC to LO and it did the job fine cooling down the cabin … but it must have been very proud of itself because it just wouldn’t quit. Stayed on LO no matter what I did, but luckily it reset itself when I stopped for gas. Only ever happened that one time.
