Heater Cables - W/fresh air fan

Heater cables open the flaps in the heater boxes allowing heat into the car. When you install the cables use white grease. Place the control(s) in the off position and crawl under the Bug and hook up the heater boxes. (A buddy sure would be helpful.) Now get back up and put the control(s) in the full on position and then crawl back under the car and push the lever on the heater box all of the way forward and lock into place. (Remember exercise is good for you.) Now recheck the levers to make sure they are closed when the control(s) are in the off position. On 1964 and earlier Bugs, the heater cable is attached to a slide. To get the slide out, twist the knob clockwise all the way. Just under the knob you will see a knurled collar. Wrap a rag around this collar and use a pair of pliers to unthread it. Once the collar is unthreaded you will be able to pull the slide out. When putting the slide back in make sure that the slot in the slide indexes itself to the spot on the slide hole.

Bug (Type 1): 75-79
