Wanted to buy A/C Heater control

July 17, 2018, 03:40:04 pm

I broke one of the mounting ears off my a/c heater control. So I need to find another. The coach is a 1987 GV 29' front engine (Ford 460), but I think the controls are the same as many other models.
Here is a picture of what I need, taken from a for sale coach.

For that price (Reply #3) I'd figure out a way to fix the old one.  If it is just a fractured mounting ear, surely there is some other alternate method to attach the plate.  Make a metal bracket of some kind, fix the broken ear with epoxy.....

OR, stick it on with SHOE GOO!

Thank you all for your information. I will attempt to fix it with epoxy. I will also check the wrecking yard.

OK he found the part so this thread is now locked. I let it go on because it was helping a member repair his coach but discussions are not for the classified as they will be deleted in six months. So I will move this to discussions so it is saved.
