Hey,
I knocked in the temperature control knob and now the cold air doesn't blow.
so I turn on the AC (blue light comes on), the compressor is running, but cold air doesn;t blow , rather just hot.

It seems I've messed up the connection of the thermostat at the back.
I really don't want to be paying through the roof to get it fixed, so just want to see if i can open the dashboard myself (center facia panel) as they call it and see if i can hack in a fix.

any thoughts on where i can start to open the center facia panel (Hyundai i30 active 2012) ?  Thank you for your help

Ouch, that sounds expensive. Hopefully someone knows. Hang tight.. being a worldwide forum with many time zones can take a while before everyone that may be able to help sees these things and replies.  :cool:
