I don't see where anyone answered your question yet. Yes, the knobs need to get pulled off the levers first. They take a lot of force to get off the levers sometimes, scary-level of force, it takes so much force sometimes.

Then the plastic panel will pop off - it's 'clipped' sort of on plastic points. Usually comes off pretty easily with a screw driver under the edge. Then you have access to the fan switch. Scott www.turbovans.com

So I bought this replacement dash switch and now I need to yank the old one. The blower switch is in the same panel as other the heater/ventilation controls so I guess the panel must come out for access. The Bentley shows a nice illustration of the entire system, but not how to remove the panel. Do the knobs on the heater controls come off first? Does the entire panel pop out or does it come off to allow access to mounting screws behind?

Related question: does the Haynes (or another) manual provide more/better/different info on this? Thanks!

Stephen
