Post by: fiend61 on 24 November 2010, 07:06:22
hi all
my missus for her sins drives a ford maverick, she has a steep hill to climb going to work, well thats her excuse  ;D i have cured the misfire which was just plugs and leads but now the heater blower has stopped working on all settings other than position 4 (gale force)  ;D does anyone on here have any ford experience and could point me in the right direction??  :y btw hope i have put this in right section  :-/ if not could the kindly mods move it for me  :y
thanks

had similar on my old escort with the blowers, the fact it works means that one side of the blower unit is shot and needs replacing :y

More likely to be the fan speed resistor.

Hateful things these motors, Terrano II's without a good supportive dealer network and jap spares prices

agreed rovers suffer a lot with this fault  normally a cheap and easy fix
