Toyota Celica A/C and Heater Controls

The A/C and heating system in your Toyota Celica plays a big role in the interior comfort of the car. Whether you’re dealing with a missing button or a cracked panel, replacement parts can get your Celica back to normal, making it easy to control the temperature as you drive. With a wide variety of parts for Celica models from every year, it’s a breeze to find the component to complete your repair.

What is a fascia?

A fascia, which is also called a face plate, is the panel that holds the sliders that control the heat and A/C in your Toyota Celica. These units are usually designed for older Celica cars, which used sliding levers rather than knobs and buttons. The fascia sits in your dashboard; each one features a series of long, thin openings through which the control levers protrude. Each opening is labeled with controls such as temperature scales, fan speeds, and vent locations to help you manage the climate of the car.

What options are usually on a control panel?

The control panel design often varies between Celica models. Some cars use sliding levers, while other cars use buttons and knobs. No matter which Toyota you are working with, the climate control options usually include:

  • Heat or A/C temperature: A sliding scale ranging from cold to hot.
  • Fan speed: This enables you to control the speed of the air that comes out of your vents. The fan speed is usually noted on a scale of low to high, but some Celicas use a numbered scale.
  • Vents or modes: These buttons or knobs allow you to send hot or cool air to a specific combination of vents.
  • A/C button: Turns the A/C system on or off.
What is an A/C controller?

An A/C controller is the unit that sits behind the dashboard of your Toyota Celica. This module connects to the A/C buttons or knobs and communicates the information to the cooling system in the vehicle. Usually, it connects with a wiring harness or a single wire. This part may also be called an A/C temperature control unit, and it may be sold with or without the control panel. If you are purchasing a standalone controller, read the specs carefully to make sure that it is compatible with your existing control panel.

How can you choose the correct A/C and heater controls?

A huge range of heater and A/C parts can be found for the Toyota Celica, which can make it overwhelming to find the right option. Since the Celica was manufactured from 1970 to 2006, the component designs can be selected depending on your model year and trim level. This will ensure you select parts that will fit correctly.
