Heater speeds

Postby dibs » Sat Mar 15, 2008 2:28 pm

low and medium speeds don't work on my fan, which seems to be a common fault. I've checked the resistor and tried bypassing it with some wire to check the circuit, and done the same with the selector switch. Still only high works which I think bypasses the resistor circuit. Is there something in the fuse box I am missing? Can anyone offer any suggestions? Cheers

Only have newer model ones on ebay, and it was behind the passenger headlight. Managed to clean up all connections and works fine now.

People should get there adverts right

that WILL fit from 1986-1998

but it WILL NOT fit 1998-2000 as there fitted inside the heater box
