You got any info on how to setup dual climate controls on this unit by chance?
My manual doesn't give me any hints about this, but Scosche website for this unit clearly says it's possible.

I'd check the installer menu. Tap the scosche logo on the right screen repeatedly and go through the menu. Might be something there. I'll take a look later to see if I can find it.

Have checked the menu myself. I only can set the heated seats and windscreen in there, but not a dual zone AC or cooled seats. Looks like i have to switch to the Metra kit. Anyone can check if the Metra kit can be set to Celsius instead of Farenheit (i'm in the EU and we use Celsius over here for temperature).

Ok, the Metra kit cannot be set to Celsius according to tech support. So far so good.
But whenever i set the climate control to automatic the blower goes full speed and at the same time there is barely any air coming out of the vents.
Anyone had the same problem ever with one of the 5840-kits?

I also installed the Scosche kit with the two touchscreens for climate controls. My kit came with a circuit board for the base model buttons as well as for the premium toggles. It's a separate piece and you install the one you need. My question is if I acquire a set of premium toggles along with the rubber backing thing, is that all I need as far as hardware to get the toggles working in a base model? I know I would have to use forscan to enable them. I have been looking to see where I might score a set to try but haven't found anything. Thanks

i have a premium bezel with buttons im selling, pm me. i had it installed and had the toggles working in my base model, but im not sure how your going to integrate it with the Scosche kit.

You actually take the buttons from the original bezel and put them in into the dash kits, no matter if the dash kit is from Scosche or Metra.

Which is exactly what I did when I ended up installing a metra kit in my car, also had to transfer the circuit board from the factory bezel. At that time though there were two kits, one for base one for premium. Sounds like that's changed?

Interesting, so the scosche does not require transferring the circuit boards anymore?

Exactly. The current kit from Scosche actually has two circuit boards that you can use, depending on the equipment of the car. 3 or 4-buttons.
But you still need the actual buttons from the car which are transfered from the original dash to the Scosche kit.

Hows the unit holding up so far? Say the new unit, got real excited about it, then read this forum when everyone had problems with Scosche before...dont want to waste money on the kit if its going to give me a bunch of problems!

I have my 2 screen Scosche and works great. It looks very good in the car.

Quick question, You said you have the Maestro unit wired and working...did you have to do any programming for that to work? Or if i got a head unit that supported Maestro, could i just grab it and wire for the Transit like you did and everything will work? I plan on getting a scoshe dash for steering wheel controls and cameras.

So I was able to transfer over the toggles from a premium bezel and use the second circuit board provided. after enabling the mode buttons using forscan, it works like a champ.
