A/C - Heater Control Vacuum Switch/Valve

My valve broke I havent had any luck getting one new, you know the rotary with 5 inputs for vacuum lines.

I'll PayPal someone $10 for a good functional one.

The site is intermittent right now, but there's a fix for it if you search here. A guy here made a Youtube vid as well. Basically adding a bolt though the center IIRC.

Re: A/C - Heater Control Vacuum Switch/Valve

Is that $10 plus shipping, or $10 shipped?

$10 shipped I was hoping for especially used...only cost $1-2 to ship.

and to the other reply, the little plastic black piece that the vent slider uses to turn the switch completely snapped off...I wish it was that easy..lol.

Yeah used but not all that easy to find in good shape. Maybe three to send and then there's the gas to get it to the PO... I'll send you one for $15 shipped. PM or email me your email address for pics and other info, Henry

Guys, I know about the "fix," something odd just happened and the little black piece that sticks up and allows the vent control to turn the rotary snapped off...just terrible...

Thanks for the link AtlantaTA, I was trying to keep track of that thread and couldn't find it when I needed to.


Sorry for hijacking your thread XxXChrisGXxX. If you have trouble finding one here you can also try the local upull or craigslist for cars being parted out.
