TEMPERATURE CABLE
ADJUSTMENT
Because the cable and the cable housings have fixed
lengths, it is impossible to make a temperature cable ad-
justment.
In addition, the heater/air distributor case linkage cannot
be adjusted.
If a malfunction is suspected, verify the proper operation
of the controller and the mechanical doors for the heater/
air distributor case assembly.
