Well after a whole day of working in a hot garage 16 feels great lol.

And yes, it does that. It also raises the fan speed slightly to compensate for lost airflow when going from upper vent to upper and lower vent together. Then it slows down again when you go to just lower vent. Pretty cool.

My hat's off to you on a successful project! Your scouting around and research and so forth has paid off well. Good stuff.

Awesome job! Would be amazing if we could verify that the Fit EV climate controls could be used.


Please be sure to have a detailed parts list in your DIY. It would be awesome to have automated climate controls here in Texas!

Will do, this is a really long DIY so it's gunna take me a while to finish a solid write up without missing the details.

In the meantime, here's a little demo video. Notice how it changes the vent mode and fresh/recirculate on its own when all I do change the temperature. Also, there are now 7 fan speeds not counting "off".

Very nice! I've always wanted to do this with mine but never knew what all went into it and was too afraid to attempt it.
