Scott,
I don't remember if the valve is normally open and vac. operated closed
or the other way around. But it is a commonly available part, however the
original one was metal, the aftermarket ones are plastic. The part I got
was: Control Valve Autotemp or Everco H1946
There is a "micro" switch mounted on the heater box face, facing the pass.
seat. This switch should have vac. on one side, then when the doors is
closed or opened, there is an arm that activates the switch either turning
on or off the vac. Check this switch. I don't know if they are available
aftermarket or not.
