Center Vents and Control Lights not working (Long) Posted by Wil W [Email] ![]() ![]() |
Just finsihed changing my Dashboard with one without cracks. Was fairly careful pulling everything and labeling. I put it all back together careful not to knock anything off.
But, my dash lights for my Fan Speed and Heater controls are not working. I had changed the top one before and with a little "Fusing" I was finally able to get it to work. However, now they just don't work. I swapped the bulbs to a new location just to chekck and it worked fine. Is there something I'm missing, or do I need to go hunt down the wiring and check for breaks?
Second, I went to connected my Vent Distribution Selector and didn't notice any of the vacuum lines were loose. I checked the vents, and the center ones will not work. (I'm not sure if they ever worked. My fiance has had the car since we bought it and she doesn't remember if the center vents ever worked, its been winter... The car is in MN) BTW, I only had 4 wires connected to the Vent Selector, but Had 6 Plugs? I connected the way it was originally, only the Top 2 and Bottom 2 plugs were used. The center 2 plugs were not used? Not sure what I'm missing, I havent checked where the other end of the vacuum lines go yet. Any ideas?
But, with the help of the board, at least I now have a nice crack-free dash, and I replaced it myself. I also swapped my radio to the lower slot and added the Ford Cup holder. Thanks TSN BB . Next I need to add my fog lights that were destroyed by the previous owner and recondition my leather.
Thanks for the help and sorry for the rambling...
