BLACK- 1998 WS6, ASC BUILD #206
I had mentioned an issue that I have been dealing with a few years and that issue kept us from enjoying the T/A for a long while.
That issue is, I cannot get the flow of air to change from the windshield to the dash vents or floor.
This has caused me to let the T/A sit a lot more than desired.
Someone responded to my quiz for help to look for a broken vac line between the top of the motor and the bottom vac canister under the R/H headlight assy.
I had already seen that line broken when I replaced the headlight motors BUT could not see where it actually connected.
After the suggestion I set that idea in the back of my head and it went to sleep.
I bought replacement line and hose fittings/splices to match the line dim and placed the parts on my loading bench and FORGOT about it.
Today, I decided to give a look to see what, IF anything I could discover. Looked under the bottom below the headlight assy and I see where the line connected to a vac canister. I did not know what it was much less it being a vac canister. I ran the line up the wheel well to above the breaking point and spliced and replaced the vac line, connected it to the vac canister, fired up the bird and IT WORKED!!
It took me a bit longer than I thought it would to complete the job and clean up but I have A/C from the dash again.
YES, I did take and enjoy a nice T/A ride on a warm day.
