Welcome to the site. If it`s any consolation I`ve never plucked up courage to fix heater control

Welcome. I have found this site to be one of the friendliest I have been involved in. Most are willing to help and go out of their way to do so. Now just start posting

What's the problem with the heater blower?

Welcome!

2 clutch clips!!??

You should only need to do it once, this is indicating a problem at the gearbox end then, as it must be putting too much strain on the clip to break it twice.. If not had a new clutch, it could be friction plate/release bearing, but also the nylon bushes the release arm works in...

Pridz, dont be afraid to get involved....if youve ever been on other forums you wont find the usual array of keyboard warriors here....everyone on here is a good sort

They use a lot of terms down here that would make you laugh ... until you have lived here a few years.
