My heating works in that I can get warm air up to the screen but at the same time this is effectively neutralised by cold air blasting out from the vents either side of the dashboard that look as if they would have been connected to some vents in the doors had the original door cards been present. My heating is permanently on as the flaps by the heat exchangers are wired closed (?) so that the heat goes to the front of the van. The cables aren't connected because the engine is a 1600 twin port from a 1972 Beetle (whereas the van is a 1968 model) and the heat exchanger flaps don't line up with the cables properly, hence the wiring up idea. I've tried adjusting the fresh air levers on the dashboard up and down but the cold air still blasts in regardless so is there any way I can fix this short of sticking duct tape over all the vents?
