1997-2003 Grand Prix Climate Control Diagnostics

This is a quick reference for how to use the diagnostic mode built into the dual zone digital climate control system which came installed in some 1997 through 2003 Pontiac Grand Prix Models.

Every time I want to look this up I always have trouble remembering the terms I need to search for to retrieve it, so I have stolen mirrored this from This Forum Post.

To enter diagnostics mode:
Press and hold both the Driver and Passenger knobs in simultaneously until the display changes to read "-00". To change position, turn the Driver knob to the desired number and turn the Passenger knob one click to view the data for that position.
