The manual temperature control in this Renault Kangoo MK1 no longer works; the lever moves freely, and the air remains either always hot or always cold. The cause is the breakage of the plastic tooth on the gear of the control that engages the Bowden cable (the steel cable that controls the mixer flap).

This is an old and poorly maintained vehicle, so instead of replacing the part, the YouTuber made a small hole in the seat where the tooth broke with a sharp tool, passed the Bowden cable through this hole, and created a loop with the cable itself, allowing it to work and transmit movement.

He secured everything with a tight zip tie, and now the control works at almost no cost.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
