How did you guys fix your nipples??? lol being serious here. When I pulled the vaccuum plug off I can see the the soft nipples are sucking closed. Is it ok If I just take off the very tip of the nipple off so that it doesnt suck closed so easily? How did you guys fix it? Thanks.
http://trialsnuts.com/ecc.pdf what I have personally done is found a good set of nipples from a jy and replaced mine with a good hard set of nipples..lol sounds wierd |

So todd after I try that test and let's say that the actuator is good, do i still remove the rod? Also how do you remove it by lifting it up off the plastic hinge?

If it doesn't move than I would lien towards the programmer being bad. As far as the rod goes get a long screw driver under it and just pop it up. Probably only take about 10 pounds of force to pop it off the clip. |
Well I finally got it done. I popped the arm off and moved the door over to the right and my beautiful heat came back :) If i had know this back in the summer I would have done instead of sweating in the car. What is the permanent fix? I guess replacing the actuator will be best. Thank you so so much for all your help. It was -4F this morning when i went to work but i park in my garage so it wasn't that bad.

when you do replace the air mix actuator,
This will help you with calibration. Start by turning the temp to the maximum heat setting. Wait until the actuator arm moves all the way to the right. Move the airmix door all the way to the right, hold it there, and then snap down the metal connecting rod to connect the actuator arm and airmix door arm. Next turn the temperature to the maximum cool setting. Watch the action of the actuator arm, connecting rod, and airmix door arm as a whole for smooth, quiet motion throughout the full range. Verify that the airmix door moves all the way to the left. Then set your temperature to the desired setting. Turn off the ignition and restart the car. Either let it idle for a few minutes or take it for a test drive to verify that the ECC has stopped blinking. If it has, then you are set to enjoy air at the correct temperature again! |
