I just bought my C5 Z06 last week and after paying the seller and picking up the keys, as I'm about to leave he tells me the HVAC doesn't work lol. I was pretty frustrated because I am new to corvette's so I thought he was screwing me over, but he said it was an easy fix so I took his word.
Glad to see that it was an easy fix after all. Took mine apart last night and it works just like new now. Thank you for taking the time to make a step by step guide, it really helped me out. Thank you.

Yes Toque, yet another member that has benefitted from your tutelage on the HVAC repair. It was one of the first things that I fixed on mine, along with blowing out the condenser and rad. cottoncandyek, if you haven't done the rad blowout, you may want to. Congrats on your purchase and best of luck!
I just performed this repair and it worked perfectly!!! Thank you for the advice. Total time about 1 1/2 hours for un-install, repair re-install. The display is as good as new!
Mine is dim I knew about this thread but forgot how it was done. Mine can still be seen but next time I pull the console I'll do mine.
Make sure you note the earlier comment about the resistors being loose -- I found two that almost fell off the board and that while soldering the first side they easily slide -- try to use downward pressure on the soldered edge and not apply pressure to either side.
