Heating controls

got the hump!
keep finding niggles that are a right pain, now I can't get full ventilation to the windscreen vents, I know the temp flaps are electronic but what about the flow control? electronic or cable?

Cable, could well hve fallen off, does the air direction move about when turning the control?

xeman · 07-01-2006, 18:41

not really, does it def have a cable?

xeman · 07-01-2006, 23:29

come on guys! sonone must know if its cable or electronic distribution

Lummox · 07-01-2006, 23:33

Errr trust me its a cable for the distribution, I know a few things about them.

If the direction doesnt move, i.e to the floor, face, screen then the cable has come out.

top stuff, where does the cable come from? I have pulled the dash apart and can't see one!

You have to remove the heater controls and the drivers undertray panel. Once the panel is down take of the footwel vent and you can see where the cable runs. Mind you get it in the right way around, you can get it 180 degrees out.

what a right pain, probably have to wait a week while the part is ordered
