I need to replace the heater and air conditioning control unit in my 94 XJ6.
I have the part in hand, and in looking at my Haynes Automotive Repair
Manual, it tells me to first "see chapter 11 for removal of the console
heater control/radio assembly trim bezel".

My problem is that my chapter 11 doesn't contain this information. (In
fact, most of the pictures in this 88-94 repair manual appear to be the
older models.)

The actual replacement of the unit looks rather simple once you are able to
access it. Any tips as to where to start for removing this would be
appreciated.

Your '94 XJ40 should be like my '88 and my friend's '92.

You have to remove the two screws under the center console lid next to the
latch. This will allow you to remove the ash tray assembly. The "Ski
Slope" is held down by two plastic wing nuts that must now be removed. Once
that is done, the ring surrounding the shifter must be removed. Be careful
not to break the tabs. Once these parts are all removed, the ski slope
should lift off. You may have to shift to Drive to get it to clear. This
will expose the console fascia that holds the radio and A/C controls. The
fascia is removed by 6 (I think 6 -- possibly 8 screws). The entire
assembly is now removed from the dash. Once out, the A/C control can easily
be replaced.
