    Thanks for the info, mines just gone and done the exact same thing.
    I'm taking a chance with an ebay cable rather than ford's prices

      i am just about to look on ebay for one, i dare say ford will take the piss on the price of it.

      Oh my god life saver I took mine apart and my cable was bent thankfully not broken but I don’t see how it bent but managed to smooth it out and hook it back in and see if it will work 🤞🏻

      @@lemon2.017 As it is a solid cable i am wondering if flipping the dial round to quickly might cause it to bend, as i did spin mine round fast as the moment it broke. the red cable on mine is more a stranded cable not solid like the green one, maybe it's got more of a sharp bend down the the connection on that side.

    Did you found from ebay or somewhere else the green cable? Because i have the same problem and i accidentally broke the 2 clips that hold the cable next to the control panel

      Hiya, yes i got one on ebay, but i only seen two of them on there, i did call Ford for a price and would you believe they wanted £49.21 for that little cable, i bet they only cost about £3 to make.

      Some have called it a heater control cable, others have said air con cable, there was only two available on Ebay when i got mine, and from ford your looking at £49 which is a piss take for such a short cable,

      Did you manage to change it ? Is it fixed ? I’m in two minds whether to fix it myself, it’ll probably be cheaper and would have a genuine part but I’d have to scratch my head a lot . Or take it to a mechanic who would charge me a fortune and replace it with a part from Temu. It’s a hard decision

      @@EduardoSeabra13 Hi, yes i managed to replace the cable, it is a tricky job to do, as you can see from my videos, i was tempted to just leave it, but with winter kicking in i thought it would be a pain not being able to change the air flow direction. get the cable and see if you can do it, if not then get a price from a garage to do the job.
