#1 Heater air flap cable bracket

Post by ralphr1780 » Wed Dec 30, 2015 8:52 am

Noticed on some of the factory fit pics that the heater air-flap control cable goes through a bracket having a rubber grommet which is fitted to the bulkhead next to the valve. But could not see this into enough details.
This bracket might be fixed to the bulkhead together with the throttle linkage for lhd cars.
Searched for pics in few restoration threads but without success, and failed to nail it in the spare parts book.
Could any kind fellow post a picture or guide me to locate an illustration? I might have it laying around in one of the boxes with other bits.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Ralph,

This is a picture of when I removed the heater. You can see the heater control cable hanging down. It is located by a bracket on the throttly linkage attached to the biulkhead:

Hope this helps.

Cheers.

This is it Simon, many thanks!

If I may ask, these 2 springs seen attached to the servo are original?

Not too sure, but I don't think so.
