Hi all..,,  Did Burning man  burn the computer?

anyway....

I have been having air leak past the defroster
door for as long as I have owned
my Syncro. Last night I think have found my problem.
I removed the center cover and was looking over the
cabling. After careful examination I noticed that the
end of the defroster cable was being restricked by wiring
that had been relocated because of the radio installation.
The wiring was right in the way of the cable. This moring
on my way to work, I was having a hard time
feeling any air at all! The cable end is located to the
right of center behind the glove box. It can be reached
by opening the glove box about 1/2 way and reaching in
thru the box. With your right arm find the end of the
cable and work the cable with your left hand. I hope
this helps.
