Don't know if the heater controls in 75 had the plastic pins, my 67 had a plastic pin that was broke, so only one door in the box was opening and closing, don't remember if it was the floor heat door or defrost door. I bought a 75 Duster back in the late 80's, -36 degrees and the heat didn't work, about an hour and half drive home, took it to a local service station, the cables were unhooked at the box, they couldn't reach them, I pulled the glove compartment out hooked em back up, no luck! Took it to a parts store/service station, they had it about 1/2 hour and called and said the tank heater was plugged, told them to go ahead and replace it. After that I would start with a jacket and a sweatshirt on, and after about 15 minutes, I would be down to a t-shirt.
