Looking to get my Heater working. What i need to know is what wire is the HOT.
I have no power at the switch. Can not get it to run High, Fan, Low. The wire colors are Black with white strip, Lt. Blue, Orange, and Lt. Brown. Any help would be great, Thanks, John

Got the exhaust on now I am waiting for the break parts to come in.

Re: heater switch controll

If you have no power at the switch have you looked for a blown fuse? Does the motor turn on if you jump it from the battery? If the blower motor is locked up or jammed in some way it should blow the fuse.

Re: heater switch controll

Download the wiring diagrams for your year. They'll tell you a lot.

The standard heater control wiring is on the main wiring page. If you have AC look for the RPO C60 diagram.

Power from the fuse panel to the control head in the dash is Brown IIRC but check the diagrams to be sure.
