Comb flap vacuum actuator
My tests showed I had 3 leaks in my HVAC system. I have replaced the heater control vacuum actuator. I have used one of Roger's diaphragms to fix the foot well actuator. All fine so far.
Now I have the challenge of the Comb flap. Although I was able to remove this with a "twist", I decided to drill a hole to give better visibility, as per Dwayne, for the re-attachment. I wish I had cut the hole first, so I could have seen the "before".
Having cut the hole, I cannot work out what I should be doing. I was expecting to see a white 4-pronged lock pin sitting proud, ready for me to (try and) push the arm onto it.
However, you can probably just make out in this photo (sorry for the poor quality, photo taken through a small hole), from what I can tell, there are 2 lock pins, one at each end of an arm. Neither of them looks like an obvious candidate to attach to the arm. Which one is the one I need to try to attach the arm to?

Hi Denny
Thanks to your reply i now realise i was looking in completely the wrong place at the wrong thing - and have been able to locate the pin in your picture.
Makes a lot more sense now.
