I have a 2009 Chrysler Aspen. Since owning the car, the Auto Start Climate Control has never worked right. I try to use the Remote Start as much as I can in extreme weather (to allow the car to harm up or cool down several minutes before I go in), but it only appears to work about 5% of the time. The car will always start up with the Remote Start, but rarely kicks on the fans to operate the Climate Control. Once in a while I'll get lucky and get in and the Climate Control works out, but most of the time it doesn't.
I haven't been able to find any patterns or trends to get it to work consistently. It doesn't seem to matter if I set the cars settings to "Auto" or not, it's just very tempermental on when it wants to work. I don't have anything blocking the sensors.
I'll be honest, I haven't brought it to the dealer because this has not been a big enough issue to be without a car for several days, and have not found any threads that seems to pinpoint a solution. The only thing I can think of is an electrical problem with the auto-sensor...does anyone know if this sensor is connected to the light sensor in the car, too? (The reason I ask, the light-sensor for my dash display does not work in "auto" mode when it's light or dark outside...I've always had to manually change the display brightness manually).
Any thoughts???
