| Post subject: | Duster Heater panel |
Our '74 Duster came with the A/C removed, but original control panel intact, incl. the vacuum lines that operate the heater/defrost doors. After I fixed the various air leaks, the heater/defrost door really doesn't work from the panel--I have to manually move it to a compromise position so that some heat gets to the defrost. Does anyone have any idea of how the vacuum lines are spoz to be routed? Is there a diagram anywhere? I have the factory manual CD, but can't find it on there. I might be looking in the wrong place. That's the problem with the CD--you can't just flip thru looking for what you need. I got a replacement control unit from a junkyard in AZ, but haven't put it in yet, 'til I know how everything is spoz to hook up and I can have everything work while I have the control panel out. That sure is hell getting that thing out, isn't it? The old blower switch was frozen, so I got a brand new one from some dealer In Rhode Island. He was $100 cheaper than some sleazeball who told me I'd never find any prices cheaper than his!!!! Thanks so much for your help. |

Info you need (including vacuum hose routing diagram) is in Section 24, near the end.Quote: I got a replacement control unit from a junkyard in AZ
I think this vacuum selector is still available new, but will have to dig through books to find out for sure. Does your selector have five or six click-stop positions?Quote: The old blower switch was frozen, so I got a brand new one from some dealer In Rhode Island.

Uhhhhh...$100 cheaper?!! That switch is still a current item, ACDelco number 1550455 or NAPA Echlin HC201 or Standard-Bluestreak HS-202, around $15.
