hey wuts up everybody, i jus bought a 97 civic coupe n some stupid *** had cut the temp control cable, i know ill have to replace this but is there a way around it to control it without the cable until i can get it fixed right. please let me know , thnx

 

Unfortunately no, there isn't a way around this unless you replace the cable. Are you 100% sure the cable is cut? Or is it possible that it's just disconnected?

 

its been cut

 

well which cables been cut the one under the hood or under the dash?
if its just the one under the dash simply look under the glove box towards the center of the dash and move the linkage all the way towards you. now if its the one going to the engine bay im not sure which way is open... so youll just have to move the valve back and forth with the motor warmed up and feel for heat going thu the 2 heater hoses...
fairly simple really.or if thats to hot for you move it about half way to give ya medium temp.

 

yea its been cut right behind the dash, n i seen the piece that is in the pics n fiddled with it some but it didnt sound like it was switchn when i moved it

 

the only 2 things it moves is a flapper door, and the valve behind the motor on the firewall.

 

As addiction recommended, manually open the valve on the firewall so that you have heat while waiting to fix the cable.

 

Hey, I replaced the heater core on my 2000 Civic HX and realized that this cable was still disconnected. After contorting with a flashlight and getting video with my cellphone I finally found the end of the cable and connected it here, but nothing moves when I adjust the temperature ****. Is something loose inside?

Broken?

Do I need to remove the dash and heater core again?!
