Title: Replacing Cavalier 96 thermostat Post by: ironhalo on March 28, 2015, 11:56:22 am Hi all. I just acquired a Cavalier 96 that is in pretty good shape. I plugged her up and put a thermometer in her, and let her run overnight. At the highest setting of 5, the temp dipped well below freezing (close to 25 degrees). I backed the setting all the way back down to lowest setting of 1, but the temp still hovered around 30-32 degrees. Seems to me like I have a busted thermostat? If so, seems easy enough to replace it. The question is which kind...

Thanks in advance! Title: Re: Replacing Cavalier 96 thermostat Post by: jholmgren on March 28, 2015, 07:47:04 pm Does your thermostat have cut in and cut out adjustment screws (little tiny things)? If so, try turning the cut-out screw counter-clockwise just a bit.
If you get a new thermostat you probably want the contact style. Make sure it makes contact with the evaporator housing.

Anyone got any diagrams or anything of these old stats?
