Has anyone taken apart their Heater controller and repaired it? They are $150 in the catalog. I would rather spend the money elsewhere. My 1979 contoller leaks vacuum in every position except off.
Yes.
Right.
The vac. switch itself is not switching due to vac. leak as the usually plastic rivet is not holding the 2 main switch parts together well. Besides replacing, it is also possible to tighten this &/or lube w/ a thin layer of white lithium grease or vasoline to fix.
