Hello,
I replaced the headlighs with H4 and before the car went to get painted I removed the connectors for the headlights. Questions is now which cable goes where when using H4 Headlights, the bulbs have 3 connectors and I have 3 cables, which to plug in where?? It's a 74 2.0. Second problem are the heater cables from the heater control, does someone has a graphic which cable goes from which heater lever to which box???? Thanks for any information, - Juergen |

I mean the air controls and fresh air boxes in the front, sorry for the confusion, I have connected everything but I'm not sure that it's correct.

I don't have a picture, but if you have them connected, they are correct , because they won't connect any other way. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) No offense here but you can make a mistake, I did and now my driver's side defrost vent is closed when it should be open and open when it should be closed actually works opposite of the driver's side not good because when it plus it may even be on the wrong lever side. . but yes if your wires are laid out and connected your more than likely correct.. I mistakenly conected one open and the cross connection close dor something like that. It woudl take alot of photos to get the visaualization of connections plus it is a pain in the ass taking out the gas tank and air cleaner to show the intended lay out. so what I would do and am gooing to do to fix my problem is check it all out first.. flip one lever see what it does run the fan to see waht closes and open repeat and repeat unitl all the lever do what they are supposed to do |
