Rebuilt CCU and cold air only at side vents and defrost. Figure I need to replace pod that controls front vents. But who sells them? Fast lane does not come up with any hits when I put the word "pod" in. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

No, I believe you need the one that is oblong and black. I replaced mine two years ago. It was fun, fun, fun!!


If I am not correct, please someone correct me.

I just can't remember as it was 2 years ago

Before spending $30 - $40 on a vacuum unit, when all that is needed is the little rubber diaphram, I would research the possibility of just the diaphram itself. For example, Performance Products has the diaphrams alone for the door actuators.

I've repaired a couple of split pods using wet-suit repair glue and a bit of rubber glove. They're still working.
