The heater only works on speed 4 and runs for say 3 seconds stops then starts again. Iv had the motor out an Un sized it so it spins freely. It doesn't work on any other speeds only 4..
Any ideas? Cheers kurt

Might be, if it wasn't for the fact that the resistor pack isn't involved on speed 4. The fan will run on 4 with the resistor disconnected and out of the car!blingsta wrote:its gonna be the resistor ...
Do the door mirrors mess about as well?

I'm not sure about the door mirrors.. Iv had the resistor out an sprayed it up. How much a are they? The heater just started sqweeling after about 15mins even tho Iv just had it out an Free'd it up so think it could be the motor aswell..
