Lexus 1999 Could it be computer problem with air and heat head?. That is what repair guy says $1500.00 to repair.

Three dead batteries and three repair shops - no solution. This guy said electrical-computer to do with the air,heat system not completely shutting down intermittently.

Wants $1100.00 for the part called a head something.. Can this be right?
