latebay Heater Cable Ends. . Something Missing

Hi Everyone, Restoring The Heating On our Van. Noticed on One Cable End It is Clipped In And Has A Type Of Cap On It And The Other Is Not Clipped In And Has No Cap On it.

Anyone Know If These Can Be Purchased Anywhere ? Or Anyone Have One For sale?

Cheers For Any Help.

 

Good luck.
There should be the nylon cap, a nylon inner cap & some rubber bellows.
The bellows are readily available, the inner cap BusOk has but the spacer/adjuster /end cap... Who knows

If you can find some let me know.

 

How do you type a capital letter at the beginning of every word ? I'm intrigued.

 

^this. Nylon bits.

Hi sorry it's my phone. The keyboard kept putting a capital at the beginning of every word. Gave up fighting it. Think I've sorted it now.

PS. Do you think the cable will work ok without it?

 

Theres more then 1 type

1. 

 

Do yourself a favour and forget about all those little fittingsd.
When I was in the same boat, someone on here ,can't remember who, suggested using a metal wire coat hanger and some of those little white electrical connector blocks.
Use these bits to join the end of the heater cable to the h/x mechanism.
It works perfectly and costsd next to nothing

 

Maybe if I could just get the bellows to keep the dirt out? Anyone got any part numbers. And I'll do a search
PS thanks for the replies

 

Every one sells the bellows, just search on heater cables & they'll be there somewhere
The nylon outer bit stops the cable outer moving so the levers properly open/close the heat exchangers.

 

^yep, this. Nylon bits as per pics above.

Better if you use old knicker elastic to close them again. Just a thought

 

Its all snapped!

Cheers for all your help.

I shall take a look. If anyone finds they have a nylon bit let me know.

Meanwhile I'll rumage in the shed to see if I can find something I can improvise with.

Cheers

 

This ^^^^^^^^^ works a treat

Best bet if your not in a hurry is wait until summer, and look through all the parts jumbles at bus festivals and the like .....Try Megabug they have sorted me out on a few one off's

 

Another vote for Megabug; send them a pic of what you want and the chances are they’ll have some.

 

Great cheers

 

Or try FBI if they're still going.

 

Who are they Snotty?
