2004 Stratus Climat control issues
I have a 2004 Stratus that when i turn on the headlights, it causes the environmental controls to quit responding. The blower still works, but the ac kicks on and the directional automaticly goes to defrost, and the rear defrost does not turn on. Once i turn the headlights off...it all works normaly. Also, the climat control panl backlights do not work at all. Anyone have any ideas?
