HIIYA MATE , I HAD A PROBLEM WITH MY BLOWER SPEED CONTROL , IT GOT TO THE POINT OF ONLY WORKING ON NUMBER 3 , THE PROBLEM TURNED OUT TO BE A MELTED RESISTOR AND TERMINALS ON THE BACK OF THE SWITCH , ONCE REPLACED HAVENT HAD A PROBLEM SINCE , HOPE THIS HELPS YOU SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM :wink:

Yeah we worked out what the fault was Mark, but he can't find the resister!

ADMITIDLY I HAD MINE SORTED OUT WHILE THE VAN WAS IN FOR A SERVICE , BUT IS IT NOT WORTH LOOKING ON THE BACK OF THE SWITCH ?????

I know on the mk5 it's behind the front grille in front of the rad, so back of the switch might not be the place to look.

GOOD LUCK MATE , I KNOW WHAT A PAIN IN THE ARSE IT IS WHEN YER DRIVING AROUND WITH BLOWER ON FULL BLAST

Gotta say I've had the van over a year now and my blower only works on full speed just like the last 3 vans. What can I say, bigger fish to fry, might fix it if it packs up.

What is it mk3 or 5 ?

whats the reg plate!!

by **mrgasoil** » Tue Oct 11, 2005 6:45 pm

T reg, that would make it a mk3 i think

by **Luke** » Tue Oct 11, 2005 6:47 pm

that would be mk5 smiley front!!!
ive never looked on one of those - i took a wiring loom out of a mk3 for my mk1 pickup the resistor was behind the headlight on that!!! so it should be there abouts on the mk5!!!

by **mrgasoil** » Tue Oct 11, 2005 6:59 pm

better change that mk3 to a 5 in my profile.............. :oops:

You will find it behind the grill on the left hand side then I believe, the whole smiley grill comes out with 2 screws.
