    i think the mechanic meant it as a permanent fix; i think it should be simple enough to mount the knob permanently on the dash with some mounting tape

    It is your call bro.

    As for me, I'd rather look for a used part at Banaue or Evangelista so that I can just replace the one in my vehicle.

    Good luck!

    have your thermostat checked first...
    dont know for your car... but for a civic kelangan buksan yung evaporator before doing it... kaya lagay nanaman ng freon...

    this also happend to me... naghanap ako sa banawe ng aircon thermostat ng civic wala... they offer me the manual type... punta ko sa honda qave ayun 650 lang... mas mura pa dun sa manual thermostat na local...

    however after installing the new thermostat hindi parin nawala yung porblem... (problem sakin is nag yeyelo yung upper(?) hose ng aircon)... so if your tight with your budget make sure na yung thermostat talaga... else goodbye 650 hello diagnostics...

    btw, anyone encountered same problem ???

    paps yung yelo pwedeng sa condenser din ang problem nyan, baka may barado. Pero normally sa thermostat ang problem pag ganyan. Palinis mo yung condenser mo at pacheck yung fan kung malakas pa ang buga.

aircon thermostat "workaround" -- advisable ba?
