Why would you want to remove it?

looks like the gear on the temperature control keeps jamming so i only get about a quarter of movement on the switch i want to remove the control panel to actually see what the problem is,the alternative is no heating or take of the entire dash,which i would prefer not to do,haynes says its straight forward but i have tried to remove it with no avail,so thats the reason i could with a little know how ,cheers and thanks from an old un
In the course of fitting A/C to my 95 pre-face LX I removed the heating/cooling control box, admittedly I did remove the dash in the process, but that was because the instal required it. I would imagine ( as Haynes suggest ) you should be able to access the control box with the dash in but after removing the center section and radio. As I am sure you have already found, there are just four screws holding the control box in place, but I seem to remember the control cables being clipped in place securely and so they have to be up clipped before the control box can move enough to gain access ( and even then it takes a lot of wiggling and swearing before it budges ) . Good luck with the job and worse case scenario remove the dash, it's obviously a pain for the job you are doing but not actually all that hard.
The last time I tried to remove heater controls I couldn't get those damn cables off, I was so worried I would break something that I backed off and put it all back together (including the dashboard
)
