Over the years, there's been numerous instances where a forum member was re-installing a factory AC/heater combo (the suitcase style) but had trouble remembering where the four control cables from the heater control panel were supposed to be reattached. The question was again asked in a recent forum thread, and so I figured it was about time to put together some photo-documentation to answer this question once and for all. The following link should answer any questions on what cables get connected where on the factory A/C setup:
Factory A/C Control Cable Hookups
You'll have to excuse the dirty A/C unit used in the photos for this tutorial...the pics were taken immediately after removing the unit from the truck, and I was taking these photos for my own future use. But hopefully they'll help someone out.
For future reference, this page is linked to from the Technical Articles Index and the Site Index.
