I had to have the heater core fixed which caused me to pull the dash and heater box. I finally put the stuff back together and can not seem to remember where the cable that controls the temperature goes. I do not have a digital temperature control. Its a regular turn knob that goes from (blue) cold to (red) hot. The cable points over to the direction of the passenger side to around the same location as the cable that switches from recirculated air to fresh air but i can not find anywhere to hook the temperature control cable to.
Anyone know where the cable for temp control goes so I can switch from a/c to heat?

This is for a 95 Lancer GSR with a evo3 swap

Are we talking an electric cable (wire) or a pulley cable to open a flap/valve ect.

1. If its electrical wire, the two pin plug goes right at the bottom of the box on far left. The other one plugs into the middle box right at the front, also it has a small loom before it gets to the main loom running along the dash support rail.

2. If its the mechanical cable to pull, push a leaver, once you take the glove box out you should see a leaver right on the front of your boxes. It has a metal clip for the cable to hold onto. The leaver I'm thinking of should pull horizontally.

Don't know why someone gave me negative feedback for that?

Yes its a mechanical cable.
I only see one lever behind the glove box and its the one that switches from fresh air to recycled air.
Can you by chance show me a picture of what the temp control cable would hook to?

I found it. Its under the heater box. Odd place for a mechanical driven cable as it bends to much and doesnt work very well. Its very hard to switch it to heat. Luckily I live in Florida USA and it rarely gets cold here.
