Blower stopped - wife and kids freezing
Posted: Mon Jan 03, 2011 7:19 pm
The climate control air con unit packed up yonks ago and as we didnt have £600 around so we just left the aircon belt off.
Recently however and this seems to happen only when its getting cold the heater blower doesnt seem to want to work. You can turn up all the speed, change temperature and direction of the vents but the blower doesnt seem to blow.
My wife mentioned a week or so ago that sometimes it wouldnt come on unless you messed around with the settings. Its got worse and now seems like it wont come on at all. The display lights up correctly.
Checked the coolant levels and seems fine with plenty of anti freeze according to my tester. Doesnt seem to be a fuse if its a problem that is getting worse over time.
Does anyone have any ideas ? its an S plate 1.9TDI really need to sort this as its the daily hack wife uses to ferry the kids around. Looking at other threads seems to suggest its may be heater brushes. Wondered if anything else I should be looking for as well,
thanx in advance
