==Issues - Pushbutton Control Module (N22)==
===Failed Air Temperature Sensor (N22/b1)===
The Auto Climate Control (ACC) Air Temperature Sensor (N22/b1) in the Pushbutton Control Module (N22) often fails and causes the ACC to malfunction. This is easily diagnosed by utilising the ACC Hidden Menu Feature (See [[Automatic Climate Control (ACC) Service Menus]] which allows an access/review/read of the ACC actual parameter values during normal operation. Parameter NR.00: In Car Temperature Sensor (N22/b1), ACC Pushbutton Control Module (N22) Front Compartment should indicate the in cabin air temperature, eg 25C. If it reads 0C and the cabin is not freezing then there is a fault. The solution is to test the thermistor and aspirator function and then if necessary replace it. See [[Testing - In Cabin Air Temperature Sensor (N22/b1)]]. To rteplace it see section Removal and Dismantle - Pushbutton Control Module (N22) below.

===Aspirator Noise===
The small blower fan called the Aspirator, which draws cabin air over the ACC Air Temperature Sensor (N22/b1) in the Pushbutton Control Module (N22) can become noisy due to excessive build up of dust. The solution is to clean it. See [[Access and Cleaning - In Cabin Air Temperature Sensor (N22/b1)]]

==Removal and Dismantle - Pushbutton Control Module (N22)==
These steps describe the method used to remove and dismantle the ACC Pushbutton Control Module (N22). N22 houses the Air Temperature Sensor (N22/b1) which may then be removed for testing, repaired or replaced and also the aspirator may be cleaned.
* Ensure Parking Brake is engaged.
* Place Transmission Selector in Drive.

==Resistance Specification - Sensor N22/b1 in Pushbutton Control Module (N22)==
Refer to section [[Resistance Specification - In Cabin Air Temperature Sensor]] which applies to '''both''' In Cabin Air Temperature Sensors ie Sensor N22/b1 which is in Pushbutton Control Module (N22) and Sensor N70/b1 which is in Overhead Control Panel N70. The OEM sensors were found to be not identical in appearance although their electrical properties were very similar.

* Sensor N22/b1 which is in Pushbutton Control Module (N22),
