"Yup summer has arrived and I find I can't turn the heat/temp control all the way off. Lever fully over and I still get warmed air through the vents. Any hints on what I have to do to fix this." Thanks Don I first tried adjusting the cable mechanism just behind the dash, where the sliding control is, to be sure the "closed" position was completely closed. That didn't do it so I replaced the valve, up above the spare under the front of the van. That did it. A messy job and good excuse to change the coolant completely. I got the valve from Bus Depot, I think. http://www.busdepot.com/busdepot/details.jsp?partnumber=171819809E Bob |
