Check for a vacuum leak under the hood that feeds the AC/heater switch.

Do you have any clues as to where I can find this switch? I have no repair manual.

Thanks.

The verdict is... AC Control Module. $526 for parts + $120 labor.

How does this sound to the experts?

for a control switch. Does it have some kinda fancy climate control? Does it not use a vacuum switch in the dash like most cars?

control module for your year and model. Let us know what they say.

The switch I'm talking about is connected to the knob on the dash that says "Max, norm, bi level, heat, ect. Usually they are fed by vacuum from the engine. I dont know for sure on your truck though.
