heat and ac control cable questions

i am putting the heat and air stuff back into my truck. this stuff has been stored in boxes for years. and i am trying to sort it all out as igo. there are 3 cables that go to the ac / heat controller. as far as i can find anyway. all three are different lengths.
so, what cable goes to what lever, and component on the other end. also which end should have the adjustable end?
thanks cor any help you can give.
Tony

Re: heat and ac control cable questions

I can tell you the shortest cable goes to the heater box lever you can see from inside the cab. The "heat"control. Also runs the fan motor switch. The adjustable tab goes on the heater box lever. Lever is located low on the heater box,facing you as look at the heater box from the passenger seat. The cable is barely long enough to reach.

Just guessing but seems to me the next longest goes to the defrost lever at the top of the heater box. The longest one would go through the firewall to the lever at the heater core to the "temp" lever on the heater control.
