Re: Vacuum line question



Mechanic hooked up wrong. He's running vacuum backwards through mode
switch.

Line operates heater core shut off valve. Is only active in Max A/C
mode. Runs from passenger intake rail (one device of many on big 3/8"
line), through mode switch, under console in hard plastic line, out
driver's pontoon, to heater core shut off valve.
