Climate control has another function?

[Andrew Lundy]

Martin--

That's how you check the function of your climate control!!  The first read
out is any trouble codes (00 means no trouble codes found).  Then there are
22 channels which (most) carry useful info.   They relate info like equiv..
resistance values for inside/outside temps and coolant temps.    One channel
is a speed sensor (NOT in mph/kph)...possibly the channel you we're on!!

One channel (11) will tell you the alternator voltage output.  A good check
if you're having battery problems and don't have the "extra gauges"!!

HTH!!
