christopher 5 1 Cars Posted June 7, 2010 (edited) My heater fan in the cabin suddenly runs continuously and will not stop when I turn the control knob.. I'm assuming here that it is control unit on the dashboard that is the problem?? (I have already changed the resistor a year back or so) I tried cleaning the contacts (under the dial) with brake cleaner but it makes no difference at all. Could it be anything else (perhaps a relay or something?) ? Else should I just replace the whole unit? Cheers Edited June 7, 2010 by christopher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

christopher 5 1 Cars Posted June 8, 2010 http://forum.205gtidrivers.com/index.php?showtopic=120384 Graham. Thanks for the link. I read the thread but don't see it is relevant.. My internal fan is stuck on instead of not working as in that thread. I have also replaced the rehostat a couple of year ago Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KRISKARRERA 2 1 Cars Posted June 8, 2010 If you switch the engine off and restart does the fan stop? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
christopher 5 1 Cars Posted June 9, 2010 (edited) If you switch the engine off and restart does the fan stop? Just to confirm this is the Heater fan in the Cabin not the radiator fan.. The fan is constantly on when the ignition light are turned on. When I turn the dial it makes no difference to the fan. It is even still running when it is in the closed (recirculate) position Edited June 9, 2010 by christopher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pug_ham 243 3 Cars Posted June 9, 2010 Its still most likely to be the heater resistor imo, mine did this as one of its party tricks before dying completely & not working at all. A couple of years can be a long time in a Pug. Graham. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A couple of years can be a long time in a Pug. Graham. You are friggin kidding me. I bought a new one from pug because I didn't want the hassle of repairing one again and breaking down in winter..I always thought a broken resistor place meant it didn't work at all Edited June 10, 2010 by christopher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
