85 GSL-Se Climate Control Does not work after warn up

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue, the climate control works on my car when I start up when cold, vent / AC everything, now that it has gotten warn 95 deg the climate control system does not work after running the car say for 20 min or so, if you get back in the car after shutting it down and starting it up again there are no lights on the climate control or anyway to turn the system on absolutely no power to the unit it seems. It appears as some sort of heat soaking any guesses to how to repair would be greatly appreciated!!

I guess you could get access to the unit and run it till it quits. Then open it up and spray it with some electronics cool spray. If it works, it means there is an issue with the circuit and you would either need to repair or replace. It could be as simple as cold solder joints caused by age/use.

Sounds like faulty solder joints on the main board on the control unit.
