Hi
I'm sure this has been covered before but my heater blower works on speeds 2 and 4. What is the cause of this please ?

Heater resistors only die when they are overloaded by a slowly seizing up heater fan. The bearings are plain porous bronze bushes, and need to be cleaned and oiled with a light oil every twenty years or so.
