Well I want to get these working correctly.
When I pull the heater level all the way up, hot air just "oozes" out into the cab. When I move the fresh air fan lever over, it doesn't seem to work or even turn on. The airflow doesn't increase... Also, the other two directional levers don't seem to work either- the hot air oozes out of all- defrost, center and down. Am I missing something? Is there a diagram that shows all the wiring and correct tubing for the heater and fan? Where do I start? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif) |

The fresh air blower should have three speeds. It's common for one or more of the speeds not to work. The usual problem here is that the sliding contacts are corroded behind the switch in the dash.
You can see the fresh air control boxes in the front trunk witout removing anything. Have a helper move the sliders while you're watching and see if they're moving all right. The heater flapper boxes mount on the heat exchangers and have ducting that goes between them and the chassis. Those might need to be replaced. The flapper control cables can be adjusted if they are not pulling things open all the way. They just use your standard barrel nut. |
