A/C question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Eddie H. · 11-17-2014, 07:38 PM

I have been trying to find a replacement 2 or 3 port vacuum switch that goes on the A/C control panel. The only way I have found them so far is by buying the whole control head assembly. Does anybody know of a source for this part?

Thanks

Yep, that's the one I'm talking about. They call it the control head vacuum switch in the picture. It comes in 2 port and 3 port versions depending on the year model, but either one will work.

Thanks for looking. I got my old one working by taking it off and cleaning it up a little bit, I guess it was just stuck.

KEWL... let me know if you need any parts... I will not be using the Factory A/C in my truck so basically I have a complete Factory A/C unit less the Center Vent, Side Vents and Defroster... Also the Compressor has been given away...

I am not good with the names of the parts... but if it is the round black plastic piece that is on the a/c-Heuer box under the hood then it is in great condition... I would take 20.00 shipped if you want it...
