Ha. Mine has a secondary heating source. Even though it is freezing here, and my heater does not work right now, I just turn my custom speakers up to 20+. It'll produce some good heat for the whole car!

THE SETTING MOTOR AND FLAPS



The sensor string is connected to the setting motor, located inside the center console next to the driver’s right leg. The setting motor electrically moves linkage on the HVAC body that sets flaps to control air flow thru or around the heater core, thus controlling the output air temperature.





POTENTIAL PROBLEMS



The setting motor and flaps rarely fail. A few owners have reported that the flaps needed adjusting.





TROUBLESHOOTING THE SETTING MOTOR AND FLAPS



Remove the left side panel from the central console by moving the driver’s seat all the way back and down, and removing the two Phillips screws.



With the ignition switch on, move the temperature lever all the way to the highest setting. Find the setting motor and observe the linkage coming out of the top of the control unit. Move the temperature control lever to the lowest temperature setting - the linkage should retract.



To adjust the flaps:

With the ignition switch on, move the temperature lever all the way to the lowest temperature setting.

Disconnect the setting motor link from the operating lever.

Move the operating lever to the lowest possible position.

On the right side of the HVAC box, loosen the securing screw in the center of the connecting link.

Move the upper lever all the way down and forward, move the lower lever all the way down and forward, and tighten the securing screw.

Adjust the setting motor link until it will just fit into the operating lever, and engage pin.

Default Problem solved

Dealer looked at car -the car had spent all its time in Florida and it appeared the PO had pulled the intake and return heater hoses off the heater core and spliced them together bi-passing the core. When this was done the nipples on the core were damanged and the core needs to be replaced. Quoted $260 for a new core and 10 hours of labor. Looks like this may be another winter project for me.
