Re: Heater switch assembly problem

Has anyone else had this problem, and if so how was it fixed? Very strong glue perhaps? I could not find a thread on it.

Not sure I follow you 100%, but I'm going to give it a shot anyway. If you are talking about the faceplate coming loose from the frame that is pretty common. There are a few threads on repairing them. Here is one.

If you type "Repair heater control" into the google search box above, click on the circle in front of 67-72chevytrucks.com, then click on the google button you will find some more threads on it.
