In my recent installation of an XM Radio, I had to disassemble most of the center console, including the Vent and Temperature Controls. When I pulled out the vent and temperature control console, I didn't realize that the actual vent control wire could actually pull out. Now my vents are stuck blowing in one position (just defrosting the windshield). Does anyone know where this wire plugs back into and the easiest way to access it?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Vent Control Problem (ecubersax)

that cable plugs into the switch lever on one side and then there is a hole kinda sorta below and to the side of the radio that the cable plugs into. you can usually just push the cable in and it clicks in. make sure the control knob is in the correct position the vents are before attaching the cable to it or your controls will be messed up (in defrost the air blows to the floor only, or vents blows on windshield ect)

Still can't seem to find the hole to plug the cable into. Does anyone have a diagram or picture of where this goes?

Well, take a look at the Euro cup-holder DYI provided by OEMPL.US, as it mentions the issue you described with good illustration. Maybe it will help.

Ok, a little off topic:
Dang! You have a VAG-COM tool and you work on V-Dubs? Sure wish I lived near you.
