The question is - Can you actually control the (Fan & Temp)?

There are some Forscan settings to get the (IPC) to display the screen but as far as I know it does not allow for adjustments
I did look into this some time ago, but never really dug deep into it as it has been asked.

If you're not using Android Auto or CarPlay, the truck has voice control of the climate.

I remember testing it soon after I got the truck and it worked fine.

Once you connect a phone though, all voice control becomes either Siri or Google Assistant and the truck voice control is disconnected, as well as truck navigation.

I do wish I could select between connected phone or built-in voice control as every time I am forced to use the buttons for HVAC I am reminded how much I loathe those poorly thought out controls.

I assume you used Forscan for the display. I've heard that it is display only, steering wheel buttons won't work.
