Below we will see the instructions that will allow us to reset the automatic air conditioner of the Volkswagen Passat. First of all, we get on board the vehicle and start the instrument panel; then we press and hold down the "rest" button and the air outlet button of the front ventilation nozzles, until the air conditioner lights flash, as shown in the video.

We then wait for the air conditioner to recalibrate, then turn off the panel and start the engine; we then verify the correct operation of the air conditioner!
