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.
HEATER CONTROL PANEL
Removal (Montero)
1) Remove heater control knob and heater fan switch knob.
Remove center console. Remove defroster nozzle at temperature control
cable side.
2) Remove lap heater duct and glove box stopper, and push
glove box forward and down. Disconnect inside/outside control cable
from blower assembly.
3) Disconnect control cables from heater unit. Remove heater
control panel mounting screws, and pull out panel slightly. Disconnect
heater fan switch harness connectors. Remove heater control panel.
Remove heater fan switch from heater control panel.
Installation
1) Place air outlet change-over lever at closed position.
With heater side air outlet change-over damper lever in position,
connect inner cable to lever, and secure cable casing using clips.
2) Place heater control lever at OFF position. With heater
control lever in position, connect inner cable to lever, and secure
cable casing using clips.
3) Place inside/outside air change-over lever at INSIDE
position. With heater side inside/outside air change-over damper lever
in position, connect inner cable to lever, and secure cable casing
using clips.
4) Set control lever to each position to check for correct
operation. If lever does not operate correctly, adjust by moving outer
wire at clipped point. Ensure each control lever moves smoothly. If
any noise or stiff movement exists, apply multipurpose grease to all
moving parts.
NOTE: When mounting heater control panel to instrument panel,
tighten upper bolts to instrument panel so they also secure
center panel.
