re heater problem

Post by baffsfishing »

hi folks
as i said on my previous post i am having problems with my heater i cant get air out of window vents or the floor ones,the face vents are strong and good,anyway i took the heater control off today and the 3 wires are connected to the back and everything seems to be working there,this problem only started after i used a spray in the cab to clean the aircon,i have tried it without the pollen filter,still no good,could something be stuck after using the spray?is there a way to get the clove compartment out to have a look behind it? i can find 5 screws at the top of the compartment,are there others i need to find to get the glove box out? any help would be godsend as am off on my fishing holidays in 2 weeks and dont want to drive with a misted up windscreen due to wet gear in the car
cheers roy

This topic, probably known to you, talks dash removal, and must have references to glove box removal:

http://www.frenchcarforum.co.uk/forum/v ... hp?t=17811

The fault is a flap/vent problem.
Never been there, but some are motorised, and others are operated by cables.
If cleaning fluid went down the vents, some flap may be sticking.
If only the face vents work, the air conditioning will still demist all the windows.

Have a nice little holiday. Image

Hi Roy,

Re the glove compartment, you've the 5 easy screws. There are 2 or 3 screws hidden underneath the material inside the glove compartment.
You must take this off and you will see the screws, another great idea from a car manufacturer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As Clogzz says it's in the description of the dash removal!

Best of luck

Kenny.
