1977 no heat drivers side

Installed new heater blower motor in the engine compartment several weeks ago
and got heat on both sides.

This weekend only blowing on passenger side.

OK......any ideas on what happened and where to look?????

Make sure all the hoses in the engine bay are conected then you'll have to go under the car and check those hoses and see if the flapper is closed.
Could be the cable broke on that side and the flapper has sprung open.

+1 on flapper cable/rod. Happened to me. Takes 2 people to check, you and your back under the car and a helper pulling the lever in the cabin.

I had the exact same issue. When I checked the driver side hose and flapper box (where the engine meets the firewall, behind the driver side rear tire and suspension) the hose had completely fallen off.

If you end up having to replace your hose, here's a link to a place that sells the correct size...

Hose from Aircraft Spruce

Checked it out tonight. Hose is fine but drivers side cable is broken. Passenger works fine.

What part do I need to order and does anyone have a link on how to install?

Thanks

try heater cable in search bar on the new parts page, you should find it ......... install ....
tips i think are in the tech center, or waynes book i think .................

disconnect at both ends , remove broken cable thread thru (from rear i think) connect to heat lever , place closed postion and connect to flapper at rear ..............
