More small jobs over
the past few weeks, this time heater specific. With all parts back from
coating, I started with cleaning the parts that didn't need or were not fit for
coating. Like the heater's wiring loom, which was cleaned, tested with the
multi meter and given the OK;
The same applied for
the heater's fan and motor assembly. A quick check with a 12 volt feed showed
the motor to be running OK. And after an hour's worth of elbow grease it looked
presentable again. Especially when compared to how it looked when it was removed
from the heater. Almost a shame it'll be hidden from view deep inside the
heater unit!
Next on the heater's
to do list were the control levers. The mounting plate with which they are
mounted to the heater was powder coated. But the two lever assemblies could
only be cleaned up, as they can't be dismantled. And coating them would almost
certainly render them useless. Luckily they'll be hidden from view once fitted
to the heater and tucked away behind the centre console;
And finally I cleaned
the flap assembly for the front screen demister and put new foam rubber padding
to the two flaps. Time for another before and after picture!
Hopefully I'll be
able to start on the reassembly of the heater soon!
