temp knob help...

i just did the led swap on the climate controls the other day. I ran into one problem though. i can’t remember how the temp knob was connected in the dash. My temp knob now is just stuck on cold and will not move at all. Wondering if anyone could show me some pics of how it’s put back in or explain in the best they can.

yeah some beazy was in my car and she was complaining that she was cold and she turned the knob and it broke inside the knob is fine though what the hell happened anyone? stupid beazies ( broads that are easy )

I’m uploading pics for you right now…

edit

Make sure you have that little metal piece thats on the knob itself, on the inside part.

This part, that’s slightly raised out of the hole…

Also, notice the white marking on the knob - it should match the position of the inside sleeve / slot… Also notice that the flat part of the temp. dial (first pic) is pointed upwards…

Upwards should match where the white mark indicates…

If the sleeve isn’t there, or if the dial is damaged - that could explain why it doesn’t move. Try to remove the knob and slip it on again another way - maybe rotate the temp dial with a pair of pliers so you can slip the knob over the dial when it’s straight, I’ve noticed it messes up sometimes for me and I have to re-seat it.

Hope that helped.

And excuse the dust in my car lol.

L.E.D swap ?? i wanna see pics now haha:rockon:

my fault for not explaining what exactly i meant. When i did the L.E.D swap on the lights. I took out the internals that rotate the actual knob. i see it has a white spiral lookin thing and 1 other thing that goes over it to. I’m not exactly sure how they r suppose to sit in that little area where it goes. Right now, u try to turn it and its just stuck in the same position. It turns a lil but then hits something (so it feels like it does) and stops moving.

DA9…
I like the Blue L.E.D light swap. The color is a lil uneven though on the climate controls. The only thing is i only got the 74s w/o the base. So if u hit my dash hard enough, they will fall out of place. Hasn’t happen yet though. I’ll upload some pictures tonite
