I would check the actuator motor under the dash in the center to make sure the motor is getting power or it may have gone bad if you are not getting air in the direction you want.

Dual climate control on these is not a manual valve adjuster. It is done electronicly with a electric motor on a valve instead of ran by a maual cable. Find this and check the plug for a 12 volt signal. If you are getting a signal replace the valve, if not it could be a blown fuse, cut wire, or a bad climate contol switch.

most commonly resistor and wiring?

Ignition off, remove the hvac fuse for ten seconds, reinstall, start vehicle.

change the bulbs inside the dash

There are 3 things to think what can be the problem.
1. there is a day/night sensor on the dash.{not working properly}
2. there is a variable dimmer for the cluster illumination. loose connector or terminals.
3. The display itself.{can be defect} loose connection at the display or terminals.
lot of work.

Hope it helps.

Take battery cable off for 5 mins, then put battery cable back on. Insert your key into the ignition turn to on but don't start the vehicle wait 5 seconds turn back off repeat the key on/off three times. This initiates a re calibration of climate control equipment and actuators. It will fix your problem.

The lights can be replaced, you must disassemble each panel, desolder each bulb and solder in new 12 volt 6 mlliamp from radio shack. Sounds hard but if you look on youtube you will see it's not that hard and you will save alot of money.

Check the relais module located inside under the rh side of the heather box you can see the connector most of them need to be replaced as they burn out you may need to replace the blower motor as well,high amp draw caused by faulty bearings will overload the blower motor controller
