Any way to get one of these controllers, or is there another alternative out there?

Those were discontinued by gpeterson. Several of them had issues (all?). I know of one other product (I can't find the link right now), but someone emailed me that it had issues also. There are a handful of people who know how to make a CANbus interface, but they just make smart comments about how it's easy or "not as special as you think" without sharing the info with the rest of us.

I had the GPeterson Canbus and it never worked right. I had two versions of them and I still could not get the AC working consistently, then he skipped town and didn't respond to emails. I pulled the entire canbus system out and installed this from Race German. https://racegerman.com/collections/e...-ac-module-kit

SOOOO worth it. My AC works without a hitch now and since I removed the Canbus I am controlling the aux fan just like it would have been controlled as OEM. Much cleaner solution, will it light the check engine light for me, no, but I don't care.

Should be able to have the CEL Coded out.

No I don't have a CEL on, the original Canbus was able to light a CEL if the engine had an issue. Lost that ability once I removed the Canbus since this new part only worries about the AC.
