Heater cable broken !

#1 Post by tony g »

While messing under the dash I noticed the cable has snapped at the lever end. Where can I get one? Or is there an inner cable from something else I can use?

Cheers

Anyone? Looking at MG stuff on ebay etc but I would need to shape the end to fit on the peg at the control lever end, but a dolly one would make life easier :)

Thats good of you Steve, mine is the one which is connected to the fan speed lever and out into the engine bay to the flap on the fan unit.
