Re: Standard heater controls repair.

-
I have repaired a couple of them.

I bought a heater control repair kit. It had the new levers and a decal sheet for the face of the unit. I drilled holes all the way through the face and countersunk the holes on the front panel. I then put small flat head screws in to hold it all together and applied the new decal to the front. Use the smallest screws you can and when you countersink the holes keep trying the flat head screws and stop when the heads are flush with the surface. I had really good luck with this and you can't tell it was repaired.

Can't beat Accelo's for a quick repair though....
