Is it possible to turn off passenger side air vents completely? Before I did the retrofit I could control the specific flow from each area (top middle bottom). I can't seem to find how to do that post-CIC retrofit

Maybe it needs to have some post-CIC retrofit coding done. Just as Patryk posted.

The climate control options in the CIC are different from the CCC version.
You need to get used to the way it works now

I see the climate control is the most important problem after retrofit CIC.

I have pre LCI control climate and with retrofit CIC I change LCI climate module and make some soldering like in this forum.But I need some info how to code the CIC or IHKA for best work:

HVAC_INDEPENDENT_HEATING
nicht_aktiv
HVAC_AIRLAMINATION_CODRV
hvac_high
HVAC_AIRLAMINATION_DRV
hvac_high
HVAC_AUTOMATIC_INTENSITY
aktiv
HVAC_CABRIO
nicht_aktiv
HVAC_FOND_ACTIVATION
nicht_aktiv
HVAC_INDEPENDENT_AIR
aktiv
HVAC_POPUP_AIRDISTR
aktiv
HVAC_POPUP_AUTO_TOGGLE
aktiv

-------------------------

is that correct ????

I think the AC not work : there is no COLD going out the went ???the temperature like outside.When I make 24C at maximum the hot is going ok.Now I drive to check freon refrigerant level.

Or put back pre LCI climate module to check maybe it works OK.

Thank you for your help

I put back my old climate module,soldered pin 21 back.Now all is working good !!!

INPA recognize my ihka.All regulating working ok no error at all.Cold is coming from vents!

Better to have TRUE CLIMATE CONTROL - not mickeys on the screen

yes i put it back ! the new LCI climate control module need more rework than to solder pin 21.You get several error in diagnostic software and no properly functioning.

Maybe you need to do a lot of rewire or even sensor change.But it is TOP SECRET so its wasting the time to get it work properly.

bmwspeed, which climate control part number do you have? I wanted to get part 64119177715, however, the guy I bought it from sent me 64119155643. Supposedly it's a part number change. I just want to make sure that it's actually the same hardware or if there is some slight change to it.
