heater control module bolts....
Can someone tell me the size, or where I can buy whatever type of bolts attach the heater control module to the dash itself? Or what you used to mount yours.
Thank you

Re: heater control module bolts....
They are 1/4-20 thread bolts. Choose whatever style of bolt head that you prefer in that size. Typically, they are Phillips pan headed style.

Also, to add to the discussion, I went out into my shop and dug out my box of heater controls. Some are 1/4-20 and a couple are like #10 sheetmetal screw threads. These are all basic heat (non air) control heads. I can't really say for sure if the ones that use screws have just been abused and had the threads cuts by just being forced or if they came that way.

Mine has sheet metal screws. No clue if that is original or not.

Re: heater control module bolts....
Ive tried 1/4-20 and they are too big, this is a replacement module from LMC so if that matters...lol
I may end up trying some sheet-metal screws. thanks

Re: heater control module bolts....
My used replacement controller had stripped threads.
I just used stainless machine screws (#10, I think) washers and stop/lock nuts. |

Re: heater control module bolts....
If you have the AC controller you need the bracket that fits to the bottom of the panel so the 1/4"x20 will screw into it. The panel it self doesn't come with it most of the time you have to take it off the old one and install it on the new one.
