Replacing AC control panel

[porsche996tt_tpe]

Hi,

I have a cracked digit readout on the A/C Control Panel. I've found a used part to replace it. Can it be a straight plug-in? Thanks. Just want to be sure...

Model and year of your car please -- and model and year (or part number) for the donor part.

Not certain of your specific issue, but have you looked at this:

I have performed this repair recently and found it to be both easy and low cost (~$50); furthermore, it (1) does not require any reprogramming that may be required with a new control unit, and (2) replace an old part with new part (which I prefer relative to used parts that may fail in short order).

Good luck,

Curious, what did you search for on Ebay to find the replacement LED panel? I'm not having much luck.

Thanks,

Match the number as there is another ending 03. Get the wrong one and it will blow the dash binnicle fuse.
