    Hi all-
    the steering wheel button which switches between incoming and recirculated air is busted, either doesn't fire, occasionally fires, mostly misfires (sends the wrong code, ends up switching the touchscreen to powerflow/efficiency screen). All other buttons, and the horn, work fine.

    Where to start?
