Modus Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 So I hit a nasty pot hole, BOOM!!! Luckily no issues with suspension or tire. But...seems the shock has transferred to every brittle piece of plastic in the cabin and behind the dash. Got squeaks and rattles now. Okay.... After shock wave I have very little passenger heat from the ECC. I have read that some of the damper controls on the motor break an no longer move the dampers. I have taken out my glove box and looked at the damper (a not so great location) but not sure what the heck I am looking for that would be broken. Does any one have a picture of this damper motor broken? Do I need to remove it to see the breakage. I found this. How common is this? http://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=54750&p=275374 Looking for insight on how to fool this so I can get more heat as it's -10F here with the wind chill. Note: No flashing ECC lights. All systems normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troyhyde Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 Usually it's the plastic connectors for the short metal shaft connecting the motor to damper arm. (you can see the motor turning but it is not moving the arm) Gotta take a peak.... I think the motors are only held on by a little torx screw.
