Okay, i put in an after market double din pioneer i had in this car the only problem is the circuit board behind stereo broke and it's all one piece including the A/C on and off button that has to be pressed on for A/C to get cold and compressor to come on. i was thinking of somehow wiring a toggle switch, but what exactly is the correct term for what the button controls? Any cheap ideas on how to fix this without having to buy a entire new piece?i'm referring to the A/C button next to the recirculate and defrost button.

Hi,

Honestly, the part needs replaced. I believe what you are referring to is the printed circuit board. If that is broken, a toggle won't fix the A/C.

Let me know if that is what you are referring to.
