The heater on my mk2 xantia has started working intermitantly in the last fortnight.
Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it decides to come on after about 5 minutes by which time the car is steamed up and i can't see anything and other times it doesn't work and then decides to come on after about 5 minutes. It doesn't seem to matter what I do with the controls, they never seem to get it going, it just starts when it wants.
Where should I start looking to try and sort this out? Its a bit of a pain at the moment as the car is a bit damp inside at the moment due to all this rain and the fact I left my wet sailing gear in there for 3 days!!

On my 1.9TD, a failing alternator made the blower work intemittently.
Check yours with a multi meter as it's best to catch it before it dies.
Might not be the issue, but it's a new cause that I'd not heard about before.
