DaveT Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 A couple days ago, I had my wife take her Impreza to a local dealer to get a few recalls done, including the passenger air bag. They had a new guy start the work, and he screwed it up, and it took a lot longer than it was supposed to. Now she is even more unhappy with that dealer, as we find the heater vent controls no longer work. No heat or AC anywhere. The vent selector knob turns, but seems to have no effect. The blower runs, you can hear air, but nothing coming out anywhere. I just downloaded a PDF of the FSM, but it has no index, I can't find anything, and it's 3000+ pages.. With no index or table of contents?!?! WTF Any idea what could disable the vent selector? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveT Posted October 10, 2018 Author Share Posted October 10, 2018 Update, found it. They apparently left the mechanical cable disconnected. I still need a usable FSM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I'd think you'd return to the dealership and have them fix the car - if they balk - contact SOA and meet with a regional rep at the dealership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 DOH, beat out while typing you can sometimes find FSMs on line - do a search and include ' .pdf ' in the string. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
