Re: Dash AC Selector Switch Part Number? Reply #3 – August 13, 2020, 01:41:17 pm Being used in a Foretravel, I figured it was probably sourced from a '03 model Saturn Ion, or some similarly obscure and defunct brand/model. Quote Selected

Re: Dash AC Selector Switch Part Number? Reply #5 – August 16, 2020, 05:39:44 pm When I started this thread I thought the selector switch was gonzo because there was back-feeding at two different detents. I cleaned it, bench tested it GOOD and reinstalled it. If it goes south I'll replace it easily for $45.00.What I did find was that one of the vacuum solenoids was not closing at the vent and not allowing a vacuum to be produced. The OEM solenoid is no longer being made or available anywhere but the links below are to a replacement that will work for you with only minor modification for mounting. I have two brand new ones in a parts bin in my shop and both tested perfect when temporarily hooked up. I think the key is the vent that is pictured between the two blade terminals on the solenoid.Also, I have to say that my original Eaton solenoid was missing the filter media at the end of the vent. I thought maybe something got inside and wouldn't allow the vent to close so i blew it out with air, put new filter media in the vent and reinstalled it. It too now works perfectly. If it fails later I should only have to remove the bottom of the dash and not the entire glove compartment, because it's the solenoid on the end (#7) and easily accessible.Here are a couple of links to a replacement for the OEM solenoid.
