Ok I removed the ac in my 92 xploda and now my heat is on randomly and only on high. Is there somthin to do with me removing the ac or should I be looking more so at the resistors for the variable speeds? Any insight would be helpful thanks..and oh ya whats a good way to patch a brass sending unit float lol :p thanks

Yea if it only works on high its a pretty good inclination that its the resistor.

You can get them at the junkyard real cheap...unless you prefer to pay an outrageous price for a new one...but they are a ten minute job to replace either way...I finally found the pic of mine...got it out of an F150...wire colors are different, but same basic functions...
