What Is This Part?
The heater control cable grommet is a rubber sleeve fitted into the bulkhead opening through which the heater control Bowden cables are routed. These cables connect the cabin controls to the heating and ventilation mechanisms. The grommet surrounds the cables at the panel crossing, keeping them separated from the exposed edge of the opening. It is a useful inspection point during heater cable replacement, control repairs or restoration work, particularly if the original sleeve has hardened or split.

What Does This Part Do?

• Lines the bulkhead opening: Provides a rubber interface where the heater control cables pass through the panel.
• Separates cables from the panel edge: Helps prevent direct rubbing between the cable coverings and the surrounding metal.
• Supports cable routing: Keeps the cables located at their intended passage through the bulkhead.
• Closes the gap around the cables: Helps fill the opening rather than leaving an exposed passage around the cable run.

Why Replace This Part?
Ageing rubber can harden, crack or tear, leaving the grommet unable to sit properly in the bulkhead opening or surround the cables. If sections are missing or the sleeve has pulled out of position, the cable coverings may contact the panel edge. Replacement is appropriate when inspection confirms deterioration, damage or poor seating.

Check the grommet when the heater controls or cables are removed, as dismantling can reveal damage that was previously hidden. A serviceable grommet does not need replacing simply because cable work is being carried out. Stiff or unresponsive controls also warrant inspection of the cables, their adjustment and the connected mechanisms rather than assuming the grommet is the cause.

When to Replace This Part?

• Cracked or split rubber: Visible tears extend through the sleeve or around its seating edge.
• Hardened or distorted shape: The grommet no longer fits securely into the bulkhead opening.
• Missing sections: Part of the panel edge is exposed beside the cables.
• Cable rubbing: Scuffing at the bulkhead passage calls for inspection of both the grommet and cable routing.
• Damage during removal: The sleeve tears or cannot be refitted securely after heater control work.

Where Is This Part Fitted?
Location: At the front bulkhead, surrounding the heater control cables where they pass through the panel. Its seating edge fits into the bulkhead opening, with the cables routed through the sleeve.
