I have had similar problems with my 99M.

Try this:
1. Start the engine but do not move the vehicle.
2. Set the Temp Control to 75 degrees.
3. Press and hold the Floor, Mix and Defrost buttons at the same time.
4. The control head will begin to blink and enter a diagnostic mode. Once
the unit has gone through its diagnostics it will either return to its
normal mode (with all air doors calibrated) or it will return one or more of
16 differend error codes between 23 and 51.

Thanks Bob ,, and thanks to others who replied... as previously suggested I
removed the fuse for 10 minutes and it may have worked - but this suggested
fix will be my 'Plan B'' All of you enjoy the Holidays - we have 6" of snow
and expecting 5" more.. will be white Christmas for my redheaded
grandkids..

It usually happens to me at least once per winter with my '00 300M
that during sustained highway driving during moderate snow fall (or if
the highway is messy and throwing up snow) that my external
temperature reading will drift upwards (usually into the 50's ) and
soon after the vents will be blowing luke-warm to slightly cold to
moderately cold air, regardless of how high I set the desired temp.

Will I be able to perform the above-described diagnostic process
during an episode like this (ie while driving) ?
