Heater control cables

Post

Back to the top
Happy new year all!

I was installing the dash today and came up against a heater control unit with one of the fixing tabs missing and one of the cables on the left that controls the fresh air I think(?)that had splits in the sheathing so didn't work.

I think they're referred to as slider cables or EZ cables.

I've sourced a controller but couldn't find the cables for sale anywhere.

Anybody know if they're available?

I think you are talking about 37.

I have used in the past a Throttle cable off a Lawn mower that I stripped the sheath and bent the "L" shape on the end.  Worked well.
 

What do Divorces, Great Coffee, and Car Electrics all have in common?

They all start with GOOD Grounds.

Where are my DIY Links?

 That's exactly it Brian. Mower throttle cable, brilliant! I was trying to remember where I'd seen that sheathing before, I'll pick one up. Thanks
