I have the hissing sound emitting from the area of my A/C mode switch and I have purchased a Mode Switch Diaphragm to replace the existing one as a first step in restoring the car's A/C function. My question is in regards to finding the most efficient proceedure to gain access to the Mode Switch to service it. While figure 52 in the Workshop Manual provides an illustration of the switch I could not find any text describing its removal. Does gaining access to the switch require the complete removal of the console unit or can you just pop out the switch panel facing? I would appreciate any suggestions on how to proceed.
