Heating/AC temp control panel Sign In

I have a 1990 Subaru Legacy wagon. When I bought it, the only way I could make the temperature control unit light up and work was to bang on the dashboard a few times. No it won't even work when I do that. I checked the fuse box and the fuses are ok....A mechanic suggested it was the blower motor or resistor....went to the junkyard and got those parts...put them in and nothing changed.... My next idea is just to replace the temp control unit with one from the junk yard but is there any wiring I should also check or replace....? I'm not really a mechanic at all....I just bought a chiltons guide and have done a few small repairs and I don't want to keep buying parts if I'm looking at the wrong thing...[blueridgemountains@hotmail.coml]

The system needs to be diagnosed p[roperly by following a wiring diagram and testing various pints in the circuit until you find the problem. You can't just throw parts at it. That gets real expensive.
