You need tp test the resistor that was suggested to you earlier. The resistor control the speeds except high since that is straight "full" voltage.

As you can see in the above picture it is right above where the passenger's left leg would be. Very easy to see once your down on the floorboard looking towards the firewall. Just test for ohms between the contacts. If you get 0 for all figures you'll need to replace it. Very easy and not too expensive.

so......if you have a low out put heater you CAN NOT swap the larger heater and make it work??? Correct? I live in a "cold climate" and i need to replace my core. I figured I might as well do the larger core.

What say ye? Sounds like you can't swap to the bigger core???

Yes you can swap out the heater cores. The LO box will need a plastic piece trimmed off th fit the HO core into it.

I agree although I haven't really used LMC that much. I will look up the parts in their catalog, find out whatever term is used to describe the part and then look for it elsewhere.

BOTP is one of the worst websites, so is AutoKrafters.
