http://members.csinet.net/tisch/maxima/ C. My Climate control lever sticks and will not move fully to the "cold" or "hot" position. I just had this problem and though it may seem like an internal problem or a cable problem (which I thought), it likely just needs lubed! Take some grease and a Q tip and stick it in the slider hole and apply. This will free up the lever and allow it to move. I took mine all apart, pulled the unit out by unscrewing the four screws and pushing the unit in, then tilting it, then pulling out a bit so I could analyze it underneath. I was able to make the lever slide by manually moving it underneath. I realized it was just a lubrication problem and used Neosporin at the time to fix it. /Bryan 91SE : The slide controller on the heater/ac controls that moves from cold to hot is only moving from cold to half way across. Feels like it is bumping against something. Is this pushing a cable to a mixing valve? Where is the valve located, in under the dash or in the engine compartment next to the firewall? Thinking that perhaps I have a mixing valve that is binding up.
This is taken straight from Bryan's websitein the FAQ section. It's full of awesome stuff that will be very useful for ya.
