Default Vintage Air Heater Control Valve...Extremely Hot....HELP
I just installed a Vintage air system. The wiring was also replaced with American Auto Wire.

The problem is that with the key on and the car not started the heater control valve is getting extremely hot.

It doesnt matter which side you plug in the wires it gets hot either way.

What is the problem?

Your heater switch is on in the car.

All controls are in the off position. With the key in the on position. The limits to the controls have been set per VA instructions.

Motor gets so hot it was trying to smoke some wire look that was touching it. I have now zip tied the wire out of the way.
