Heater or AC resistor photo

1969 C-10, 350, with ac. Found this dangling near the firewall on the passengers side.

Is this the "remains" of my heater resistor? The fan powers up and down when I manipulate the fan control switch. The AC did not work when purchased from the PO.

Anybody got a pic of "what it supposed" to look like??




Thanks...Rick

I just replaced my AC resistor and every other switch needed for AC and heater. I saw npthing that looked like that or even looked close. Maybe the PO put the wrong part in. The resistor should have two holes for mounting on the plate.?

Re: Heater or AC resistor photo

Don't have a pic, but like the previous post there's two screws that hold it in and the part will have a coil between two "posts". That coil is the resistor. What you're holding looks like a switch. Which switch? Don't know, but you can bet someone will....

This is the resistor switch.

Here are two more pics. Any idea as to what this is, or was? When I get home this evening, I'm gonna trace the wires down.

Thanks...Rick

Re: Heater or AC resistor photo

Since I don't have a glove box light I didn't even think along that line. It makes sense, considering where you found it. There is a hole on the upper left corner of the opening. Is that where the switch goes? If so, where does the light mount? But, I think KEL is on the right track.
