Hi Guys. Just spent the afternoon stripping out the heater motor and now I need the some help. Thanks to Jimbob for the t glove box removal 'how to' and also Welung666 for the motor removal 'how to'. Both invaluable. I have an intermittent fault whereby the motor stops working. It will run off a 12v supply but intermittantly when the supply comes from the speed controller( which has been replaced also) I read somewhere that if the motor is on its way out it can draw to much current and the speed controller cant cope. Having now got it on my table I am at a loss to know what to do. The fan seems to rotate freely and all looks well. The question is ? what should I look for. Any pointers would be much appreciated. What sort of gap would you expect between the rotating bit and the magnet?
Also whilst moving the loom I came across a taped up connector with half a dozen or so wires going into it and running alongside the main loom and goes behind the switches. Anyone know what its for. The car is a 2002 v6cdx by the way.
Thanks in advance.
