im still haing trouble with the heater controls in the car which i was told was the vacum pipes
ive looked on the guides on this site about the layout and ive had a good look at my car and cant make head or tales of it all :-?
the set up in the diagram looks different to the set up on my car
any ideas anyone or does anyone live close enough to pop by and have a look
-
Vacuum pipes? Really?
More likley to be a blocked heater or duff Heater Bypass Valve. Have you checked coolant level?
-
coolant level fine
its the controls for the heater to change it from windscreen to feet etc etc
-
if the problem is with the direction you want the air to point to (eg. floor/vents/screen) then it IS the vaccum pipes that control this function, I know as one of my cars will only blow on the screen, >95 had a diffferent layout of vaccum pipes than 96> so I cant even copy the layout from one of my other cars, frustrating! >:(
-
yes thats the problem im gettin
mine only blows out the front vents and wont change to the screen or the floor
grrrr :-[
-
Its the sort of thing I could fix in 15 minutes flat......but your a bit far away!
-
when I get back home tomorrow Ill take a pic of my setup on the 95 car and you can compare it to yours, between us maybe we will get both our cars working properly.

sounds like a good idea to me
ill get my kids to bed early tonight and ill try and get some pics depending on how much light there is

when i start the car on a morning there sounds to be a motor of some sort of noise sounds like from the front n-s corner with a slight hiss thats will last for a few seconds. is that anything to do with the problem
-
just tried taking a few pics and its to dark
-
The motor noise is the air injection pump and plays no part in this setup.
There is a diagramatic view in the miantenance section for how both the early and late setups SHOULD be
-
i looked at that set up and where the 2 pipes from the air filter box comes up from the bottom end of the car to the top of the engine there is an extra t piece where 1 pipe goes down to a little box of sum sort
-
i just spent over an hour trying to sort the vacum pipes out
i printed the diagram off this site for the lay out of the vacum pipes
and still cant get the blower to move from the front to floor to screen
what next?????????
