1986 22re Toyota Pickup Heater Core Cable (Blue) replacement

In this video I'm just replacing the Blue heater core cable without removing the entire dash. I must say it was a pain in the ass because no one talked about the annoying white clip you'll see in my video.. good luck, enjoy.

Thanks for this video, super helpful. Would've broken the white cable clip if not for this.

Good job, thank you, it really helps us.

Great video...Thanks.

was this a pain to do? looks like a lot of parts can break lol. I have to get a new heater control assembly anyways so I might just wait to do this until I can get both parts.

doesn't the groove in the blue cable go inside the white clip?

[@mileswoodward8519]

You are correct. The clip will not attach properly on both tabs unless the groove is seated directly in the middle of the clip.

Huge help, thanks

Where do I get the part?

My heater core valve is completely stuck and just ends up bending the wire in the blue sleeve when I try to adjust it, so I unhooked it from the heater control valve in the engine bay. For some reason the temperature knob still switches between hot and cool. I’m pretty confused about why it’s still working.

you need a new heater valve, you can get them from the dealer still $90 bucks

Take a small bolt drill a whole in it put it into the bracket then a nut run nut up but not so tight the bolt wont turn then poke the cable threw the hole and put other nut on and tighten two nuts together problem solved
