I am having mysterious problems with my ACC. I have a 96' 850 gle with individual controls for each side (not sure if that is special for my year/model?).

It blinks 18 times (timed evenly) when I start the car. It does not always do this. I also have some strange behavior such as cold air out of the middle vents with hot air out of the side vents on auto, when I switch to another mode the air warms up in the center vents. The AC has quit at strange times. It will kick back in when and if it wants too.

I have found no ODBII codes but I am not sure if I am reading the ACC ones. Do I need to do anything special to access these codes? I have replacement sensors that I got from my local boneyard but I cannot be sure what to replace. I do not want to try shotguning. It may also be bad solder joints. I can reflow them but once again I want to be sure that this the problem.

Anyone's experience and/or insight would be greatly appreciated.
