1999 Vauxhall Movano Repair Question
Mileage: 165,000 miles.
Heater issues, cuts in and out
Thanks Jon.
Answer
when this happens tap on motor/housing and see if this makes it work. if so,brushes are worn stuck.
Um, sorry, am I being dense? A lose connection to the motor, forgive my ignorance.
Oh I see, is the housing directly above ther heater itself? Sorry, still being a bit thick.
also check wiring connectors on blower resistor and blower itself.
Especially the ground. These tend to wiggle loose. It'll be a single wire, either brown, black, or green. It may be secured with a bolt to the body, or it may be plugged directly into the bottom or side of the blower motor housing, which should be under the passenger side of the dash.
Thanks for this, very helpful indeed, its still doing it, off and on, off and on, and by my reckoning, max output from level 3 on the dial of gusting is under performing now, its a breeze not a blast now, as if it cant be bothered any more.
It could be multiple issues. One being a loose or worn connector/connection, the other being increased resistance from the blower resistor.
