The climate control panel on my 2000 Subaru Legacy BH6 has gone dark. The fan doesn't work, and none of the switches work (e.g., for the rear defrost, recirculation or A/C). I checked the fuses behind the coin tray for the Heater (2) and the A/C (1), and all three were fine, and now I am stuck. Where do I go from here? The FSM uses different terminology than the owner's manual, so I am unsure how to begin searching for diagnostics for the climate control panel. Can anyone suggest correct FSM terminology to help me along my way? Or are there any simple ways to test for failed components before I just throw up my hands and start looking for a replacement panel? Now having said that, anybody got a panel that they're willing to part with?

Howdy folks,
First post from a newbie, so please be gentle ;-)
