How to Temp Fix Broken Ac/Heater Controls

[Brand0n]

This is a quick and easy way to turn on and off your heater and Ac with broken Ac controls.Â* Â*If you like one of the many that has a evo 8 or 9 with this flaw, hopefully this helps you out.

This picture is from the floor board, looking towards the center console.Â* I markered the part you need to move back and forth GREEN, so you know what part you need to move back and forth.

great, thanks very much! Â*i have a similar problem where the temp control doesn't hold the extra hot position. Â*this should be able to guarantee that.

Yea my cable is broken :(
And have litterally not had a heater for over a year

when my cable bent a couple of years ago i removed it and started doing this by hand too. Pretty sad if you ask me that we have to resort to such things. Ide emagine there would be a pretty good sized market for converting to JDM HVAC controls if someone would put together an install kit.

^ Did you notice this thread is over 2 years old? That would be why the pictures don't work.

my cable broke too so I replaced it but it was still tough to toggle from hot to cold ... I figured the cable was new and needed to just be "worn in" a bit, but after a few weeks the actual knob broke! It broke the white part that it connects to too, to the actual unit so now I am screwed! I looked online to see how much it would cost to replace the white part behind the knobs that does all the AC/Heat controlling and it was like almost $300!!!! Does anyone have this part available for sale or know where I can purchase it for cheaper??!! HELP!!!
