HVAC stuck on Defrost 1985 Ram
The defrost on my 1985 D100 was stuck on, so I tore into the HVAC control system. There is a plastic connection piece about 6 inches behind the controls that for some reason allows you to disconnect all of the vacuum lines?...why it's there, I don't know. One side of the plastic connection was brittle and had broke into a hundred pieces, so I was getting no vacuum to the controls. I cut the snap connectors off and I bought some 7/64" ID hose and manually connected all of the lines (trial and error). There was one rogue, red vacuum line coming out of the controls that had no destination, so I had to plug it to maintain the vacuum within the system.... The truck actually idles better, as the loss of vacuum was not pulling the vacuum advance on the distributor.
