ECON Button problem

Weird problem happened when I got in my car today. The ECON button will not shut off. If I press it, the light turns off for a second while I have it depressed. I tried everything. Holding it down, putting the climate controls on Auto, turning it off and turning it back on (obviously I am a Windows user), etc. It was a pretty warm day in ATL, too. Anyone have any suggestions?

I HAD THIS HAPPEN!!!

I was the first one according to Audi. I was able to pull the fuse to fix it sometimes for a temporary period of timeBut you should do what I did and go get a new climate control head unit. It actually wasn't the unit itself on mine but they had already ordered it because it took 2 visits to figure it out. it was an issue with the wiring.
