I greased my Sliding door track [all three places it =
glides]
I used the white stuff, Lithium I =
think geeze,
let me go out to my va.... :0)
Ok, its called "LITH-EASE, All =
purpose
WHITE lithium Lubricant
| What kind of grease?
| =
>
and while at it...both my seats tracks but only after I cleared the =
tracks
|
> of sheep skin/fur from the aged covers
| What kind of =
grease?
Same stuff, I also used it to lube =
my shifter
I found one of four slides had this =
funny
looking graphite skid with a part number. Going to check it out at =
VW
tomorrow.
| > I also took my dash apart to =
add
diElectric gell to all the connectors,
| > well, the ones I could =
reach
anyway...lol
| Hey, I just got some of this stuff. Didn't use =
it
yet.

rear
heater fan switch to the other fan

am pleased to say it worked out <I'm happy now>
| Say what. Switched fan =
switch
locations? How come?
I guess that =
wasn't too
clear, let me try again.
On the dash =
near the right
side of the steering wheel, where you turnon the A/C AND HEATER FANS? =
Well mine
fried under the heat... which someone stated they are known to do.... I =
was
fiddling around (with the dash/tach cluster out) and got to looking at =
the wires
that ran to these switches and noticed to the rear of the two switches
that the wire colors were all the same (4, I think) So I unplugged =
it from
it's socket and replaced one with the other to see it worked. It =
did!!!
hoooray!!!
So now I
managed to solve that mystery. Then I proceeded to take apart the =
"fried" switch
to verify it's demise... Yep, as the list suggested it died due to melt =
down.

> Only took me two hours from start to =
finish... And
all went well. I feel good driving that baby, It's not the beast it =
was
when I bought it.

THEN added (a =
fishing reel
oil to the emergency brake, it's better penetrating because it's a =
thinner
oil) better go back to the van to see what it's called < =

It's "HOPPE'S" lubricating oil =
