In this video, we can see how to replace the air conditioning panel on the Renault Scenic III: we start by prying around the chrome trim of the gear shift, and we do the same with the one around the radio, as it blocks the air conditioning control panel.

At this point, we can remove the two screws located on the sides of the air conditioning panel, after which we can disconnect the electrical connectors located on the back of the panel.

At the bottom of the console, we have a cup holder that is simply clipped in, which we can easily pull out, and underneath we find the EOBD diagnostic port. We also easily remove the central console located at the height of the gear shift, and here too there are several electrical connectors to disconnect: now it's time for the base, which is also entirely clipped in except for two screws located near the gear shift lever.

To remove the console, there are screws at the back (otherwise it wouldn't be hanging) and at the front, from where we removed the control panel.
