im not sure wehre to put this, so if it needs to be moved, please move it.

back in June when i did my engien swap. i chopped all my a/c wires off, because my a/c didnt work, and decided i didnt want it on anymore. well stupid me cut theblower motor power wire, now i have no defrosters, or a blower motor.

so does anybody know what color the blower motor wire is (the one coming out of the firewall in the engine compartment). is it the orange one? reason i ask is, i still have the wire with the plug on it, but i dont have it connected to any of the other wires that come out of the firewall, and the wire is purlple with a splice in it as well.


thanks

It is the orange wire. If you have a 71-72, maybe a 70, maybe even other years, the plug at the end of the orange wire plugs into a solenoid looking thing in between the firewall and pass. side inner wheel well...tight squeeze, I've never actually seen what I pulled that orange wire out of...I have to change my heater core in my 72 and heard nothing but headache-type stuff about that job. So I just bypassed my heater core, heat's overrated anyways.

I like heaters. I have stock AC in my 65. Thing takes more space in the engine bay then the engine. One day i'm just going to take the heater and AC out. A nice Clean engine bay. Engine only. I've never heard it called an AC Bay.

hey aaron

if you would like you can come down and check out all the wiring I've got here
maybe we can set you up with a harness to make that work again
also I've got those tires back and they are just sitting here
or we can wait till I bring the backhoe up there and I'll bring the tires with me
either way you would still be better off bringing the chevelle down here
what ever we find that might work for you - you can have for free

thanks guys.

oh i love the heat to. and if the A/C worked, i would still have it in the car.

i have about an inch or so of wires sticking out of the firewall. all i need to do is pull the orange one out about another inch, and add my wire that plugs into the blower motor. i still have the wire that runs from the motor to the gromet where all the wires come out of, i just need to hook it up.

i had to do a heatercore last december with no garage. what fun. its a bear, but not to bad. pull off dash pad. take off all hoses. undo the bolts from the engine compartment. then from the inside pull the box away from firewall, oh and undo all linkages. pull box out, and then there are some more screws. take them off, and under a plate, is the heatercore. should take about a full day. took me 4 weeks, because of snow, and school, and working.

Tom, thanks for the offer. yeah i will definatly take the tires. we are working on the retaining wall now. we just came in for a break. are you going to be around at all later on today, like around 4-5? if so, maybe we will stop by.

thanks

aaron
