Template For
48104-RHQ
Control Panel Installation
Streamline Control Panel Template
1. Select a suitable location for the control panel. Consider heater control valve location, wiring harness
length and capillary tube to evaporator distance.
2. After selecting a location for the panel, mask the area 3 ½”(tall) x 5 ½”(wide).
3. Cut out grey section of template on dotted line.
4. Mark dash with marker or scribe. NOTE: Be sure to level template on dash.
5. Cut out opening for panel.
6. Remove backing plate from face.
7. Install face in dash and reinstall backing plate, making sure the wires for the lights exit the holes in the
backing plate.
8. Install the nuts with star washers, and then the bracket and nyloc nut. Do not overtighten the nyloc nut.
9. Tie one wire from each light bulb together and run them to a ground.
10. Tie the other wires together and connect to the wire in your vehicles harness that powers your instrument
panel lights (+12 volts).
11. Wire according to the wiring diagram on Page 7 for Gen II Compac & Gen II Super Units, or see Page 8 for
the Gen II Mini.
12. Insert capillary tube through the sticker on top of the evaporator, the entire thickness of the coil.
NOTE: Ensure that template measures to dimensions noted above prior to cutting dash.

NOTE: Evaporator thermostat capillary tube must be inserted Through evaporator sub case coil.
See illustrations below. Refer to seperate instructions included with your evaporator kit to insert
the capillary tube.
This sticker is located on the
top side of the evaporator case.

1. The air conditioner thermostat controls coil temperature. It is shipped adjusted fully cold (clockwise) and,
in the majority of cases, the A/C will operate correctly as shipped.
2. Turning the knob on the thermostat to the right (clockwise) makes the system operate colder. If the
thermostat is set too cold, the evaporator will ice up. If this happens, the evaporator coil is restricted with
ice and cold air flow will be reduced.
3. Turning the knob to the left (counterclockwise) makes the system operate warmer. The compressor
clutch will cycle off frequently and the A/C system will not get as cool as it could.
1. Symptom: The A/C works well at first, but then quits cooling. The air flow from the vents is low and the
compressor cycles infrequently.
Solution: The thermostat is set too cold and the evaporator is icing up and restricting air flow. Allow
the ice to melt and set the thermostat warmer (counter clockwise) 10% of a turn each
adjustment until the symptoms diminish.
2. Symptom: A/C never gets cold and the compressor clutch cycles frequently.
Solution: The thermostat is set too warm. Set the thermostat colder (clockwise) 10% of a turn each
adjustment until the compressor clutch cycles infrequently. Avoid setting the thermostat too
cold.
3. Symptom: The A/C never gets cold, sometimes even blows hot, and the A/C compressor clutch
infrequently cycles off.
Solution: The heater may be on at all times. Carefully feel around the heater hoses at the firewall. They
should be cold when the A/C is on. If the hoses are hot:
A) The heater control valve may be installed backwards. Check the flow direction arrow on the
valve against the illustration in your installation instructions.
B) The heater control valve is installed in wrong heater hose.
