Elec Climate Control Display Issue?

[twillett]

Hello Everyone,

 

I recently purchased a 2008 Ford Edge SEL, it been a great car. Except for one issue yesterday.

 

I was driving a sunset and my auto-headlamps were toggling on/off depending on the photo-sensor and the angle driving into the sun... Normally when the the headlamp turns on, the dimmer wheel setting will engage and will dim all the instruments and devices. This morning I was driving before sunrise and noticed the EATC display stopped dimming and will not respond to the dimmer wheel; it's staying in daytime mode... Does anyone have any idea why this is occurring and/or a way to reset the EATC head. It's a very bright green light within the cab when you driving at night.

 

Thanks Everyone!!

I know some cars if you unhook the battery for 15-20 minutes your pcm will relearn itself (most of the time) whats the worst that could happen? you have to reset your clock lol ........
