Yesterday I removed the centre-of-the-dash big cold air vent on my W201 190E 2.6. The PO had taken it out & not put it back properly so that I couldn't close it all the way to keep cold air out.
Today I noticed that the heat dials were having no effect & the temperature of the air wasn't changing at any outlet as I dialled in more heat. I'm not sure it's outside air temp, possibly a bit above, but certainly not the raging blast it was before I "fixed" the vent.
I did drop the centre console about an inch when I was doing this vent repair to try to figure out why the console no longer lit up but didn't disconnect anything, at least knowingly.
The engine temperature gauge is reading the same as before so it's not a thermostat, the system is full of coolant & not leaking.
Did I accidently disconnect something? Any ideas?
TIA.
