Hi,
I’ve recently reinstated my basic heating ducting and all the relevant gubbins, on my T25 ‘81 2.0 cu.
Does anyone have an explanation what the the three slide controls do on the dashboard?
Thanks
J

Re: Air cooled Heater controls
I have never been 100% but assumed they are temperature, fan speed and direction (windscreen, footwell etc?)

Re: Air cooled Heater controls
W T F is a useful acronym to remember the downward order of the controls.

Re: Air cooled Heater controls
Top slider is output direction, up to screen to the right, down to footwell to the left.
Middle slider is temperature.
Bottom is fresh air to the side and windscreen vents. Left is open, right is closed.
