You could have tripped a fuse. Did you drop any change into the cigarette lighter? If you did, you could have tripped the fuse out. If the A/C control screen doesn't illuminate, it could be the cigarette lighter fuse. (Incomplete circuit)
Otherwise, I'd just get the original fuse you had in there that caused the A/C to work and put that back in...GL

Yeah, that's where I would start definitely...but you said the A/C worked after you placed another OEM fuse into where the busted one use to be? Just get that dumb dime out of the cigarette lighter and check the fuse...I had this same problem. No A/C turned on at all...ended up being the cigarette lighter fuse popped. Hope that fixes it for you...GL
