Heating in the car broken?

Who does not know that: in winter the heating in the car stays cold (or warm in summer).

Instead of going straight to the workshop, you can help yourself quickly. Mostly, only a small retaining clip of the hauling rope for the thermal control unit is broken off.

This sits mostly in the footwell in the center console, easily accessible on older vehicles, and the pull rope is on a blue sheath, where a small thin wire looks out to recognize.


Then just look, if you find somewhere a broken plastic nose and then with a simple ring size 6 simply attach the hose again so that he can not adjust anymore. But beware the pull rope itself must still be free, otherwise garnix will work later.

Finally, build everything together and try it out.

ATTENTION! Do not loosen any hoses, otherwise the cooling water from the engine will run into the interior, resulting in a huge mess!
