[monza73]

no power,worked fine drove from london,dropped out after 2 hrs .....?fuses fine...motor checked all good....is there a separate main fuse for blower/demister.....i can't imagine so..did remember i had the unfortunate time with a ford escort many a moon ago and the rear lights went ..but the front were fine......advised that it was the main fuse block.?

[Crasher]

Do the lights and wipers work?

[monza73]

yes lights,wiper work.i got it working today but only seems to work at no 3....is the switch at fault?

[Crasher]

If it only works on speed 3, that means the resistor pack on the blower has failed.

[monza73]

thanks crasher....would i be as well to change the switch?

[Crasher]

Resistor first.

[monza73]
