At my advancing age, I should know better than to go by memory and maybe one of these days it will finally sink in.
I do not know which year this deluxe heater is for but believe it is 39 or 40 -- maybe 41. It has one version of a lighted rotary switch which mounts on a bracket under the dash with the knob facing the driver. Other years had different plastic covers or nomenclature pieces.
In my other post I described the operation of the reversing motor properly but erred in describing the motor location. The motor is not inside the box but rather it is entirely within the blower section and the fan is all that is inside the box. The motor is totally hidden from view if the heater is mounted on the firewall. Unless the wires have been cut off they should be exiting at the back and visible.
These photos will give you an idea of how things go together. One of these days I will get around to refinishing the box and put if back in one piece but until then these are the best photos I can come up with... I did not take any photos showing the back side when the unit was intact.
