Fits and works in my 2003 Chevy Tahoe with RW defroster

The module is made of a lighter material than the original and therefore requires TLC for durability. All functions work well and setting 5 for maximum air conditioning works much better with this air conditioning control module. It no longer worked on the old existing module. The AC ON and recirculation buttons are more responsive to presses than to a quick touch of the button, as it sometimes didn't work. The new dash looks out of place on the old dash, but it's the second step in Tahoe's…

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • I won't tell

50% chance of it working on day one

Typical bug on this part - fan speed selector 4 and 5 not working. My regular unit stopped work at 4am and then went out at 5am. As received, this unit did not work at speed 5. Everything else worked. I recommend swapping the fan, resistor pack, and wire harness connector into the resistor pack right away! Don't chase after bad luck and tear up the dashboard three times like I should have. GM cheapened the fan motor wiring harness, and the ground wire/plug at the terminating end of the resistor

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • Clarity

DO NOT buy parts from Revain.

I do NOT recommend buying Revain auto parts. Industry suppliers O'Reilly, Autozone, Carquest, Napa, etc. allow you to return a part and get help. They take care of Dorman or someone else. Revane doesn't care that they only want their share of the money and see themselves as an intermediary. The first part did not work at all, the replacement only worked for a year. I get a limited lifetime warranty from an industrial supplier, bring the part to the shop, replace the part without question…

Pros
  • The best in its niche
Cons
  • There are flaws

Perfect fit easy to install

This is an obvious aftermarket unit that fits multiple models. Make sure it fits your vehicle. The 2004 Silverado Crew Cab took about 5 minutes to install. I tested the device and everything works accordingly. All headlights work, actuators respond to temperature and door operation, and all fan speeds work. Bring the steering column to the lowest position - remove the instrument panel with your hands (lift and remove) - remove the panel - unscrew the two 7mm screws on each side of the block…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Compatibility

Don't buy this and here's why.

Read reviews. they are true I decided to try anyway because the "new" is no longer to be found. I will list my problems for easy reading. I will return it as soon as I figure it out. Here in Florida it's already the mid 80's, early February. It only lasted 2 days before it froze. None of the 3 buttons work, the air conditioner does not turn on. Although the fan selection works. You can see it in the video and photo. All sensors are off and all lights are still on.2. There is a 1/8 inch gap…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • So far so good

Waste of time and money

I am driving the third machine in two years. You will work 6 months or a year, but inevitably stop working. The main problem is the AC button. For some reason this button has become unresponsive. You lose AC and can reset it for a while until one day you can't anymore. By the way, Dorman refuses to replace these devices. They will tell you they are under warranty but you will have to send them back to the company you bought them from. The only problem is that once the security tag is removed…

It was very easy to install and once plugged in

I bought it in September 2017. It was very easy to install and once connected it worked great. About 3 months later something happened that stopped working. Now when you turn on the air conditioner, it blows hot air, and when it's warm, it blows cold air. In defrost mode, air flows out of the dashboard vents and vice versa. Of course, my product return window has expired. A complete waste of money. I expected it to work much longer. I should have read all the reviews before purchasing. Lesson…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Only available in black

The big block is the best switch

Easy installation. The hardest part was disconnecting the wiring harnesses as they had been in place for 15 years. All bulbs on the old one did not work, replaced. I have already replaced the tow and fog buttons as well as the headlight buttons. Now all the lights are bluish white to make it look better. There have been many complaints about the air conditioning turning off after a short time or the AC buttons not working. The Texas heatwave is coming soon so I'll update the review after seeing

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Some cons

The device worked normally, all buttons worked, but.

Update October 18, 2018 Bought again. My previous one only lasted 6 months. My original just had blown bulbs so I'm replacing them. This second one worked right away with no programming (wow!). Should they only last 6 months? It is "Made in China". How many of these should I buy to get a good one? ? ? ? ? March 21, 2018 --- My device is working very well. However, the manual says my 2005 GMC Yukon XL 1500 requires no programming, so I installed it. Then I found that my fan selector was not…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky
