Air - Recycle

[montokboy]

Would anyone know how to mend this problem:
Climate control recycle button does not stay in..that little square button I push it lights up..I can hear it changing vents, but it doesnt stay in.. it's like a temporary button..so I cant have recycled air.

why do you want recycled air?.... i can't even remember the last time i used mine

if you wanna fix it, just get a new switch... they're probably less than 10 bucks from the stealer... practically free if you find a junkyarded e30

Recycling the air makes the car cool down faster and lowers the temperature coming out of the vents when the A/C is on.

Yep, the switch is broken. Mine is on the way out too - you have to push mine several times in order for it to stick.

Mine works fine, but I would do what OreoGaborio said, and go to a junk yard first.

yeah i have to push mine in quickly, straight in, and with oomph and it will stay.

i had that with my ac button, then it wouldnt come out after i got it to stick... after that, i never had a problem with it again.

my rear screen heater button is a different story... piece of crap! i need to pick up a few extra because of the lighting and other stuff i plan to do.

if and when i get them, ill get extra (no time soon tho)

The recycle option is a must have for me. Last August we hit about 115 and with the high UV filter film some may even say it was cold in my car.

Yeah, what's the deal with that defroster switch - mine sticks all the time. I have to hit it a couple times to get it to turn off. Can it be taken apart and lubricated?
