Title: HEATER BLOWER NOT WORING AND SPEEDO STUCK AT MAX
Post by stoker on Mar 17^th, 2005, 3:08pm

I recently aquired a 1994 2.9 ultima estate with the speedo stuck at max and the heater blower stuck at nothing. Can anybody help?

Don't know about the blower , but if the speedo is stuck at max even when the key is out of the ignition you could try giving the top of the dash an almighty thwack to see if it dislodges the errant needle.

It's amazing what this manouvre can accomplish, I was sure my clock backlight bulb was a candidate for replacement ( a tricky job ) till I whacked the dash and , piff paff poof , on it came .
