SUBJECT: FRESH/CIRCULATE AIR LEVER NOT HOLDING POSITION

FIGURE 1:




A customer complaint of the air inlet control lever not holding in the "circulate" position may be corrected by readjusting the air inlet control lever cable. Follow the procedure below to readjust the air inlet control cable.

^ Open the glove box and pull out the stopper clips (towards the inside) so the glove box can turn fully downward.

^ Release the cable housing from the cable housing clamp located behind the air inlet control linkage. If the vehicle is equipped with A/C, it will be necessary to reposition the pulser amplifier to gain access to the air inlet control linkage. See figure 1.

^ Remove the rubber stopper located behind the air inlet control linkage and discard. See figure 1.

^ Set the air inlet control lever to the "circulate" position.

^ Resecure the air inlet control cable housing in the clamp while holding the air inlet control linkage against the stopper. See figure 1.

^ Reassemble the glove box assembly.

The air inlet control cable adjustment has been implemented into Justy production starting with VIN #723783.
