View Full Version : climate control tricks
I was looking in the leon section and they can get various bits of information up by pressing varous buttons on the climate control consul. Is there anything like this that you can do on the ibiza cc consul all I can do is change from deg c to deg F any Ideas.

Yes, I've seen this before - I think you can do various tricks on most VAG group cars with Climatronic, but can't remember much about it or how you do it.
Do a search - it's been discussed somewhere before, try searching on "climatronic" that should point you in the right direction....
The procedure in the new Ibiza is the following:
Turn on the recirculation.
Then press simultaneously the five central buttons of the climatronic: Auto, Econ and the three arrows. You can scroll through 52 codes using the temp knob. However I have no idea what each code stands for!!

The Mk4 Ibiza doesn't match up to the Leon list - for a start there are a few less readings (about 50 IIRC).
Anyone know of a list for the Mk4 Ibiza ?
It might be useful to diagnose what causes the erratic fan behaviour in the summer (detailed in another thread).
I didn't understand whether you wanted the exact "keys" to punch...
Well it's like that
Air recirculation activated
Press TOGETHER: AUTO+air up+air middle+air down+ECON (they are the 5 middle buttons)
then you can see every one of 52 readings (don't know what's what yet) with the temp adjusting rotating button
with love from Greece www.ibiza.gr :happy:
Ooops I just saw my friend SIHCTR's post, sorry!
But well, Greece yet again it is :D

Is there a way of doing it on MkIII Ibiza's with climate control? :confused:
Somebody knows which the code to see the speed? :confused:

Pmag, How did you pay for your Fr front vent's? Ive been told by my local stealer that the standard sloted type are about £5 each but the Fr honeycomb style are £25 each!! Is this correct??

The price of FR front vent's is +/- 70€, its a set of 5 vents.
No one kwons the codes to see speed,oil temp and water temp on ibiza's climatronic? :rolleyes:

I cannot seem to do any tricks on my SEAT MK3 IBIZA LCD Display (like change temperature Display from F to C) and things like that.
I have no air con in the car just the basic recirc button, fan + and - (up to 6 speed) buttons and Hot and Cold Buttons.
Any Ideas how to go into secret mode on my cars display or the diagnostic bit?
Thanks,
Andy.
Funny enough only today after 4 years of owning the car I was fiddling and found I can program 4 sound settings or linear sound on the radio by pressing the Bass or treble button and then immediately pressing one of the preset station buttons. - I have never recalled reading this in the supplied radio's instruction booklet before!

they are a different colour plastic to the Cupra bumpers and look pooo pie when fitted along side.

This isn't possible on the MK3:( ;)
Has anyone found out which code to use for digital speed yet?
Cheers
Sorry but had to bump this...
Does anyopne know this code yet? Or can it even be done?

I bought something of e-bay telling me about it, but i have lost the word file i got sent. There are ways of doing it i think!

Then Id say this isnt the right thread...
Oh and there is something wrong with your car :p
How old is it? The air con unit might need regassing, when you start the car does the air con unit flash?
stevie.w
28-05-2006, 23:51
yeah it flashes for a few seconds before starting, is that bad??

Not really, just needs regasing, £70 at a stealer

great the same happens with mine no cold in the winter but if i turn off auto it goes colder can this be done under warranty? lol and i wonder why seat did not put more settings on the climatronic as mine stops at 18 degress and thats not that cold and 29 thats a bit hot.... y didt they make it go down to around 10? (for the summer)
If yer climate is working ok 18 is well cold and you can see your breath
I would get it looked at if I was you

In fact you only need to press the three arrows and ECON at the same time...
Also no idea what the numbers stand for :shrug: Gonna try talking to my dealer tomorrow!
I think #8 is something like temp of air flowing out of the vents, and #5 seems to be a front bumper or underbonnet ambient temp sensor... I couldn't find anything for speed or rpm.

did you find a list of exact codes on ibiza mk4 climatronic.or a link
thank you

Hi Guys
My air con is playing up.
I had it re gassed about 10 months ago and since then it has been going down hill.
When Seat Dealer re gassed it they put dye in it and have since found a leak on one of the pipes coming from Compressor to radiator. Leak was from under the p clip. saw dye bubbling out.
Thought this is it.
Got new Pipe and fitted it and regassed. aircon still not cold.
Took car back to seat dealer to have codes on dianostic computer checked out , said all the flaps as in the air directions buttons work but wanted to re gas as thought this was problem.
I had oil changed in may this year and stupid garage put floor pan cover thingy back on wrong, if this was stuck in smaller of Fans on Radiator would this cause air con compressor too fail ? or would a pressure switch fail to protect it? checked fuses on drivers side panel ones for climate control and cooling fan in cabin look okay and stop circuits working if removed.
After reading some of the posts above regarding the 5 button press looks like you don't have to press the re circ button first.
Does anyone know if they have a small spanner symbol displayed when in this diag mode?
I can control the fan / flaps when in this mode by turning the fan speed control and each button in turn.
Pressing the Econ Button returns it to normal mode.
Hope anyone can help with my problem aircon as I'm baffled???
hello
because i got confused,i have a cordoba 2003 mod with the 101bhp engine..can i see the information in the clima lcd like the leon/toledo owners??
does anyone know the list about the functions shown in the climatronic screen for ibiza mk4??
