2002 Jetta heater rheostat stuck on hot (bora uk)

[mjarret1]

The rheostat dial that controls heater/ air conditioer temperatures is stuck on "hot only". I came back to the car last night and could not regulate the temperature at all. Anybody have an idea what the problem may be? ....rgds....mj

:( umm no, i think youll find somewhere in the forums rules & conditions, this isnt actually allowed either, personal info etc etc..... this isnt just a 'problem' forum, it is encouraged for members to become active posters, helping others, therefore increasing the amount of members, increasing the amount of help and therfore everyone gets an answer to their issue.

you, good sir, are simply after one answer and that alone is all you want. you don't seem to have the effort to post full details of the fault , nor even the vehicle you drive and why on earth would i give my phone nmber to someone i dont even know :confused:
