This is the most thorough video tutorial for this task on UA-cam and definitely the first one you should watch. The care and time taken to explain the cable positions, attachment of ball ends and rings to control unit are something others don’t explain fully. Horrible job to do, but made possible by this video. Bravo.
Absolutely spot on! Had the same fault bought replacement and thanks to you fitted it in an hour! Hardest part was getting stereo out! Lol great job thanks
Worked a treat, Air direction dial gear had jumped out of position. Prized it back into its track and job done. Now need to find why theres next to no heat getting through despite all cables being connected. Thanks for your effort :-)
If the cable was the original twisted wire cable type note that they can get buckled....so if it jumps out of position again will be better to change for a solid core cable.
Your first video?This is an excellent tutorial.I enjoyed all the tips that are sometimes left out by others.Very very good.Thank you so much for sharing.
Hi, yes I think that one was my 1st video....probably took me 10 times longer to make / upload the video than do the actual job! LOL ....Thanks for watching.
My problem is the hot and cold adjustment keeps blowing holes in the nylon kam attached to the control unit I’m on my 3rd control unit at £180 per go the solid core cable (red) is absolutely fine, I believe my problem is season change shrinking of plastic etc. Or spilt cola
Hi Nick, Yes take a deep breath, a chill pill and yes change that cable.....Take your time and enjoy suggest you take photos as you dismantle to help remember how to rebuild ;-)

Great job in:- doing the work; videoing and editing; explaining. Thank you but I dread having to do the same - mine is well dodgy OMG.
Glad it was helpful! Get all your tools & parts ready and go for it ;-) You will have the satisfaction of not paying the dealers ££££
Thanks for the video! My yellow cable clip has snapped! Do I have to replace the whole cable? 😫
Hi Nick, Yes take a deep breath, a chill pill and yes change that cable.....Take your time and enjoy suggest you take photos as you dismantle to help remember how to rebuild ;-)
