96 850 glt ecc temp control problem
My REC and AUT lights bink about 20 times when I start the car. I noticed that in order to get heat, I need to have the temp dial on the highest (hot) setting. if I move it any notches off the highest setting, the air gets cold. It's like there is "hot"and "cold" but no inbetweens. Anybody had this problem?

my ecc rec and aut lights blink as well but I do not have any heat or air the blower does not work, I was thinking that I could replace the ecc and fix the problem that has not worked. I have a repair manual and looked in it to see if the blinking light was a code of its own I have not found any information on it.... I do not have a code reader nor do I know anyone with one that I dont have to pay for the use of it..... Any help would be nice... I would just like to not have foggy windows in the morning or when it rains.....

AutoZone and OReillys both loan out scanners. OReilly in this area has one that reads ABS also but I'm not sure if either work on the ECC system. They are engine management readers mostly for the "check engine light". If you're lucky you might have a self diagnostic center under the hood close to the neck of the windshield washer bottle. My 95 has one but I've read that 96 and newer would need a scanner.
When there is a fault with any of the components the two yellow lights on the face of the ECC unit for AC and recirculation will blink 20 times each time the vehicle is started. That just lets you know you have a problem somewhere in the system. To find out what it is you'd need to pull codes from the system.
If you have the self diagnostic connector and can pull the codes this link had the library to decode the blinks.
