Blower fan problem-code 418 850

My 95 850 T-5R has been giving me trouble with the blower. Some times the fan works and sometimes the rec and aut lights on the climate control flash and I get no fan movement at all at any speed. I've changed the resister, relay and blower motor and still have the same problem. The B1 climate control port in the OBD1 code reader is showing code 418-No control signal to blower fan power stage.
Does anyone know how to fix this? I've inquired about the dash climate control panel at the local dealer and 1) it costs $1200 and 2) it has been discontinued. So buying a new one is out of the question. Should I be looking at the wreckers for a used one or is there something else I can do to get reliable heat? Any help woul be greatly appreciated because it is starting to get cold and also, not having a windshield defroster is a real pain. The car has auto climate control.
Thanks for any input.
