Ok so I guess it's on to the next challenge. I lost my dash heat last season. Might have to do with me pulling out the control board stretching the boden cable. The blowers work just no heat. I remember the previous owner telling me not to move the lever to far to the right otherwise I would be in for a ..... Wondering if somehow this could be cable related.
Also noticed a micro switch on top of the controls that is activated by the temp slide knob. It has 3 wires, I checked for voltage and found voltage on the wire closest to the controller when the control knob was away from the switch in the cold position and no voltage on the wire on the opposite side in either position of the slide knob. I assume the mid wire is ground. Always wondered about the AC system which never worked and was told by Newell it's not worth fixing. Wouldn't it be something if the AC could be fixed with a new micro switch! Anyway more concerned about the heat for now.
