So if you're driving and you set it to a low temperature, say 17'C, it just suddenly changes to 22'C without anyone touching it?

Well, I like to keep it at 20, AC on, but somehow it jumps back to 22. It happens on daytime, last night I drove around for hours and it kept the 20 I chose

Where did you buy your kit from?

Is there possibly a button stuck in that makes it reset or something?

Mine was installed by a local dealer and as it happens to many then its seems to be more common issue

I'll have to check mine. If it does the same I might as well have stuck with the manual version :(

Mmmm. Asked for an estimate last week at the dealer. Think I'll hold off for a moment and stick to the manual.

Local Ford dealer in France.

I'm sure a software update could fix this 22° bug.

So just noticed what it does. It shuts it self down for about 2 seconds and when it starts up, its 22c. Well done Ford, another "working" solution :)

Mine did this morning it was at 24, after 3 kilometres it changed, then the entire day nothing changed it kept the 20 degrees I've set. At the end of the day after a 1,5 hour drive it suddenly changed again.
And then something likewise, I've noticed that it seems to be off temperature, if I select 24 with outside temp 14 degrees it should get warm when the engine is warm but it suddenly thinks I need cooling ?

I took my van to the dealer's yesterday to show them the 22° bug, but of course it refused to do it. I drove back home and everything was ok, but today it's started resetting to 22 again :evil:

Covered the incongruous chrome strip at the top with a bit of carbon fibre wrap. Not a fan of CF in general, but it's the closest I had to satin black.
