REFILLING
To prevent air from being trapped in engine block, engine
should be running when refilling cooling system. After system is full,
continue running engine until thermostat is open, then recheck fill
level. Do not overfill system.
TESTING
THERMOSTAT
1) Visually inspect thermostat for corrosion and proper
sealing of valve and seat. If okay, suspend thermostat and thermometer
in a 50/50 mixture of coolant and water. See Fig. 1. Do not allow
thermostat or thermometer to touch bottom of container. Heat water
until thermostat just begins to open.
2) Read temperature on thermometer. This is the initial
opening temperature and should be within specification. Continue
heating water until thermostat is fully open and note temperature.
This is the fully opened temperature. If either reading is not to
specification, replace thermostat.

PRESSURE TESTING
A pressure tester is used to check both radiator cap and
Page 605 of 1333
With lever set at OUTSIDE position, outside air is allowed to enter
and/or pass through heater. With lever set at INSIDE position, air is
recirculated inside passenger compartment.
BLOWER SWITCH
The blower can be operated at different fan speeds to
regulate amount of air forced through vehicle. Fan speed will increase
as switch is turned or moved right.
AIR CONTROL INDICATION SYSTEM
This system consists of indication lights built into
instrument cluster and 4 switches connected to various control levers.
An indication light glows when heater blower is on. Lights also
indicate choice of outlets and whether air source is inside or outside
vehicle. In addition, temperature of air directed from outlets is
indicated for each air outlet by light colors of green (cool air) and
orange (warm air).
ADJUSTMENTS
HEATER (TEMPERATURE) CONTROL VALVE
Place control lever to indicated position. See TEMPERATURE
CONTROL CABLE ADJUSTMENT table. See Fig. 3. Connect cable to heater
control valve and/or air damper lever according to table. Secure cable
sleeve using clips. With engine running, check for coolant leaks and
check operation of heater control valve. If heater control valve does
not operate properly, adjust by moving cable sleeve forward or
backward at retaining clip.

Removal (Montero)
1) Move temperature control lever to WARM position. Drain
coolant from vehicle. Disconnect heater hoses from heater unit. See
Fig. 1.
2) Remove lap heater ducts. Remove hood release bracket.
Using screwdriver, release tabs and remove left and right demister
grilles. Remove glove box frame attaching screws, and remove glove
box. Remove passenger lap heater duct.
3) Using screwdriver and shop towel, carefully pry at top
center of instrument cluster cover, and remove cover. Remove 2 screws
at bottom of instrument panel and one bolt at top of instrument panel.
Gently pull instrument cluster out, and disconnect speedometer cable
and electrical connections. Remove instrument cluster.
4) Remove 4 screws, and disconnect electrical connections on
back of instrument cluster. Remove instrument cluster. Handle
instrument cluster carefully. Instrument cluster can be damaged if
dropped.
5) Remove center console knobs and side screw plugs. Remove
screws, disconnect electrical connections and remove console. Remove 6
bolts and console bracket (center dash reinforcement). Disconnect
radio connections while removing console bracket.
6) Remove horn pad and steering wheel retaining nut. Mark
steering wheel and steering shaft for reassembly reference. Using
steering wheel puller, remove steering wheel.
7) Using screwdriver, carefully pry out dash plug at upper
center of dash panel. Remove 3 upper dash mounting nuts, one upper
screw above steering column, and 2 lower mounting screws. Remove dash
panel.
8) Remove control cables at heater unit. Remove heater unit
attaching screws. Remove heater ducts. Remove heater unit. Remove
heater control lever arm.
9) Remove heater control valve cover. Remove heater pipe and
heater control valve. Disconnect control arm linkage. Remove control
arm. Remove heater core by moving it sideways.
Installation
1) To install, reverse removal procedure. Insert heater hoses
fully into pipes, and clamp securely to prevent leaks. Connect heater
hoses with 1-1.2" (25-30 mm) overlap on outlet.
2) When filling radiator with coolant, first open heater
control valve fully and run engine to circulate coolant and discharge
air from inside heater and engine cooling system. Stop engine, and add
coolant.
3) Adjust all control cables. When installing heater hose
grommets, apply sealer. After installing heater control assembly,
ensure each lever operates smoothly.
Removal (Pickup & Ram-50)
1) Disconnect battery ground cable. Place heater control
lever to far right. Drain coolant. Using trim stick, pry out hazard
switch and remove electrical connection. Remove 4 instrument cluster
cover screws, and remove cover. Remove 4 instrument cluster screws.
Tilt instrument cluster out, and disconnect speedometer cable and
electrical connections. Remove cluster.
2) Remove fuse box cover and fuse box assembly. Remove glove
box. Remove defroster air ducts. Disconnect heater control cables.
Using trim stick, pry under and remove speaker grilles. Remove clock
or coin box in center of dash. Remove center dash hole cover (located
above clock).
3) Remove 2 center support cover screws, and remove cover.
Remove shift knob and 6 console attaching screws. Remove console.
Ensure all electrical connections are free of dash panel. Remove 3 top
nuts, one bolt above steering column, and side and lower attaching
Page 612 of 1333
screws. Remove dash panel.
4) Remove blower duct, center duct and defroster ducts. See
Fig. 2. Disconnect heater wiring harness from heater unit. Remove
heater center support brackets. Remove heater unit. Remove heater core
cover plate and joint hose. Remove heater core from heater unit.
Installation
1) To install, reverse removal procedure. Insert heater hoses
fully into pipes, and clamp securely to prevent leaks.
2) When filling radiator with coolant, first open heater
control valve fully and run engine to circulate coolant and discharge
air from inside heater and engine cooling system. Stop engine, and add
coolant.
