99 Accord heater / A/C control?
Any Honda mechanics hang out here? Anyway.... I have a 1999 Honda Accord EX... with the manual heater / AC controls. My switch to control the fan speed only works on one speed and I can feel that the switch has "slack" in it so its my assumption that the heater control unit needs to be replaced? I believe Honda calls this item the heater control unit... while other manufactures may call it the A/C control head. Is it basically a direct swap out to change one of these, it anyone knows. I'm talking about the control unit in the dash that operates the heater / ac fan speed and the temp. Thanks, Elbert ----------- Elbert ask@me.com |
Re: 99 Accord heater / A/C control?
It sounds like the keyed socket on the inside of the plastic round
control has broken. Have you pulled the black round plastic control nob off to see? Mine broke a couple of years ago and I did a crude repair job on it with a little plastic cement. The controls for the fan and temperature settings are the same and I switched them as the temperature setting control places less torque on the keyed socket. I haven't have a problem with either since making the repair and switch. Elbert wrote: > Any Honda mechanics hang out here? > > Anyway....

that's a good idea... I'll check the backside of the knob to see.

as a quick follow-on... the knob for the fan speed is not broken. On Wed, 27 Dec 2006 08:00:17 -0600, Elbert <ask@me.com> wrote: > >that's a good idea...

Re: 99 Accord heater / A/C control?
Which speed does work?
I think your problem may be with the blower resistor module. |
