I am sorry if this question has been asked many times before but i don't seem to be able to find the answer....What does code 57 mean on the passenger AC panel in diagnostic mode?
Many Thanks

The details about Air con and Climate control are Here (http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/aircon.htm). As you scroll down there is a photo of the HBC and a link to the method for testing. Also on the left of the main page there is a button marked Climate Control Reset. That has the codes on it. The 5 seems to be a hiccup and the code is actually 07 I believe. ;)

Thank you....That was the problem I had searched through the air con page but could not find anything about the 57 code. It makes sense now. Thanks again
