<VV> LM Heater Questions

[Frank DuVal]

The other end of the heater control cable is attached to a belcrank on 
the heater housing near the heater motor, over the rear axle assembly. 
You access it from under the car. The cable travels in the tunnel pan 
area. So, remove the front carpet, front center tunel cover inside the 
car, both tunnel pan covers under the car, and did you get a little 
round clip with the new cable? After the old one rolls across the garage 
floor you may need another. Or it snaps in two from rust. A 1/4"  socket 
set is handy too for the 1/4" head sheet metal screws that hold the 
cable at the ends. Make sure when routing the new cable that the 
emergency brake cable does not saw through it. Or the clutch cable if a 
standard shift.
