    AC control valve Controller part - what is this??

    Help! Page 35 of the gen 3 coupe AC install instructions (top photo) says "Attach the controller to the inside of the front side of the control valve bracket". There is no image of what this part looks like (has wires coming out the back, and screw holes 2.5" apart). I cannot locate anything with these characteristics - does anyone have a photo or some guidance on this?

    See page 101
    It's the control module for the valve.

    you can also place the valve inside, gives a slightly neater engine bay

    John - the page 101 reference was helpful - I have found the location on my AC wire harness that says "heater control valve" and there are only cut wires - no plug that looks like it should on page 101!! When y'all got your AC kit - was the plug at the end of those wires, or did you get bare wires and the plug was elsewhere and you needed to wire it together? I have searched my boxes and see nothing that looks like the part on page 101. Heater control valve - cut wires.jpg

    I think you’re still missing the small module box. I’m out of town so can’t take a picture for you but I believe that the plug is attached to the module

    Google thermotion control valve module and you’ll see what it looks like. Don’t know if it’s exact match

    Thanks for the heads up. When I google it, I just see the valve module without the controller/ wires. If you're able to take a photo when you get back home let me know and that would help. I'll probably have to contact FFR for the part. It's weird that the wires were just snipped like that!
