Looking for a NOS, rebuilt or otherwise properly working Heater Control Valve for a '71 1200. All leads appreciated.

Thank you, usmcfred

$18 from Nissan dealer



Heater Cock Control

Nissan part number:
X2160-30600 or X2161-30600 ASSY-VALVE WATER CONTROL B110 USA $18 USD

Thanks very much ... I'll order one on Monday.

I posted this WTB as I was told these were no longer available from the Nissan parts network. Sorry to waste Forum space.

That may be true: No Longer Available. But it is listed in the 2008 catalog, so worth checking with actual Nissan dealer.

Let us know what you find out.

not sure why but I'm sure NZ dealers say parts are NLA when in the US they seem to be available. I wish we could look up availability of parts ourselves without asking the unenthusiastic parts dept to do it for us.

Nissan USA probably has 73x the parts stashed away in distribution warehouses compared to Nissan NZ (USA has 73x population of NZ). That includes some older parts too.

Could they get some parts from Australia?Nissan dealers here in USA don't seem to be able to or want to check inventory in other countries.

But some of the parts orderable here apparently come from Japan, they are "on back order" then 2 or 3 months later they arrive.

Maybe Kelmo can tell us more about how it works.

Dealer and on-line parts sources both say no longer in production and none in stock at dealers. The part number that superseded X2161-30600 is B7017B8500. I had the dealer check both part numbers and it came back none available.

Any other ideas? Does anyone have a decent used part?

Any help most appreciated.

Thank you, usmcfred

There's a 1200 in wrecking yard in Portland, OR and some in LA, California area.

Otherwise you might find someone parting out...

Where are you at?

I'm in Massachusetts. Happy to buy a decent used part as long as it appears to be moving freely with no visible leaks.

Thanks usmcfred

I have the same problem my heater valve looks like Elmer Fudds gun after misfiring.

I have been kicking around installing this one

This here 240Z one looks very close to a 1200 one
