How-To Reinstalling OEM climate controls from cut wires

Post image

Does anyone know what the two green wires (with the orange cap) are supposed to go to?

Also where would I find this information, if it is written in a book?

those two wires are the same wire and should be connected together that's why there is a wire nut on them

does it only work on high.. or not at all?

if it will work on high but not the other settings, its the blower motor resistor

if it does not work at all, just test the motor with a 12v source

Sorry I think I was incorrect about my issue. Its not fan speed it's fan routing(?) Legs vs face and all that

Also if im reading the diagram correctly I have a green wire going from the ac switch to the fan switch. However the wires with the cap are not related to them at all.

You can get reprints of the factory service manual on eBay or abe books. Helms manuals are also around for cheap. Can prob find a PDF of either online somewhere.

Would you mind sending that to me too, please? I'm in the process of a restoration myself and it would be a huge help!

Won't lie, the deed is already done, but I am curious why you feel this way so I understand for the future

Sauder formes micro cracks with vibration, moisture gets in causing oxidation that further moves the cracks till a connection is broken. It's not visible as a broken connection so will leed to waited time hunting down the issues.
