Heater fan issues.

Post by lexi »

As mentioned before I have a rocker switch which works the fan. A kind member (cough) has checked transistors on fan unit and they are ok. Fan motor is ok too. The rocker switch has a feed picked up from a Scotchlock (yuk) connected into thick white? wire just to the left of steering wheel.

It seems to be a permanant live as fan operates from rocker with ign off. It goes through a fuse.

All the connections are off the motor with this mod except the feed from that scotchlocked wire..........so it is just basically power on/off.

I suppose this means the slider is bypassed as it`s faulty?

Will get the shroud off and have a closer look. I`m actually too big to get under there :lol: It`s a Xantia

The white wire on the black plug is a permanent 12V from the battery.
The rocker bodge is to bypass a faulty ignition switch, or slider control panel.
