woop Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Hi there, I'm currently working on my '93 Disco 1 to replace a leaking heater matrix. On the heater housing, I'm having a lot of trouble separating the 2 halves to get the old Matrix out. I've removed all the clips, drilled out the rivits and the housing is at the point where both halves are loose, but the intake flap is preventing the halves from separating. Apparently the flap needs to be fully closed so it fits through a V shaped slot in the housing, but even when fully closed, mine will not fit through this slot. Can anyone give me any ideas on where I might be going wrong Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woop Posted August 6, 2018 Author Share Posted August 6, 2018 I finally was able to separate the 2 halves😀 It seems I needed to 'pry' a different way to the way I was doing it before to get the flap to sit in the V part of the housing!

Snagger Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Well done. Some cases can be difficult to open without damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent! I just gave up and fitted a whole 2nd hand unit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
