So, one of my New Year's resolutions is to fix all the niggling little issues on my MC and see if I can get them all fixed for less than the cost of a single warranty claim excess. I've already ordered a pair of gas struts to lift the boot lid (£55 for the pair). So far the engine is behaving itself since cleaning the MAF with alcohol (£6 for the can, but I'm not convinced this is actually fixed). Next up is the heating, which blows cold air unless you turn it 9/10ths of the way to max.
I'm sure others have experienced this one, but nothing comes up in a search. Anyone know what the likely cause is, or even how the heating system works? Looking at the parts on realoem.com I get the impression that there is a cable attached to the heater control. What's on the other end of the cable? If it's just opening/closing a flap to adjust the mix of hot/cold air then I'm guessing that cable just needs adjustment. Any pointers for taking the dash apart to get at it?
