Heater Selector Control ****
Is there a good location to purchase a new heater selector control ****? I have JB Weld the metal clip to the plastic a few times, that is only a temp fix, eventually this breaks too. Figure I would just replace the ****, just don't know if there is a preferred site to purchase from.

They are cheap from the dealer, or at least used to be. I found a Chrysler that used the same ****, can't remember the exact one, but it was mid to late 90's that had the same **** in the junkyard. It was from the full sized sedan, new yorker perhaps? I think the Intrepid also had the same one.

I replaced mine a couple times before I figured out to slip a tight fitting short piece of copper tubing over the plastic part that always cracked to strengthen it.
Problem solved for now for 14 years.

I used some braided fishing line and some epoxy and wrapped the fishing line around the cracked part and epoxied it. Got 3 years on that fix and all is still well.

It's an old thread but I might point out that at some point, 1995-1998 the heater control was changed from a Bowden cable operated system to an electrical rotary drive system so while the switch panel is the same the actual heater control switch is different.
