dalhalvaig 0 Posted July 21, 2013 Hi...as it says the blower is not working on any speed. I think it stopped yesterday, what I mean is that I set it at 2 and leave it. But since it was particularly hot yesterday - even in Scotland - I put it up to 4, then realised a little later that it wasn't doing anything. If it was working on 4, I'd assume it was the resistor, but with nothing happening is that more likely the fan motor itself. I've checked the fuse and that is good. Thanks D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean_Jaymo 0 Posted July 21, 2013 May be an idea to change the fuse anyway. You can get hairline cracks in fuses that you can't always see. Do you get any voltage at the fan plug? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dalhalvaig 0 Posted August 30, 2013 I took it out of the car and after much testing it was dead, however I dismantled it, took the brushes out and cleaned the commutator. Once I'd reassembled it, it worked fine. So pleased about that. The Stealers had quoted me £300... D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted August 30, 2013 try taking an aircon fan out - nightmare! Glad you got it sorted. I'm sure you did, but if not, it would have been a good idea to clean the armature shaft and lube it well where is sits in the bronze bushes (I've used grease on the commentator end) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know he didn't but not spending's as good as getting paid. D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
