Title: Blowers tempremental
Post by Kenboy on Jun 11^th, 2009, 6:50pm

I can live with this but it can get annoying.CC is just about right now, but I have had a problem for some time and that is the blowers, in that they switch off from time to time it only happens occasionaly but needs to be rectified I checked all the multiplugs I can find including the one behind the control panel and all looks ok I guess it is something loose but unable to detect, the other fault is, which I have mentioned before and that is I am unable to do a reset the procedure I use is the one from this forum but alas no joy although I was able to reset when I first had the car some few years ago, any thoughts guys, btw I would like to take this opportunity in thanking everyone that has helped with problems in the past I am hoping to thank some of you in person at Harewood. It is almost certain that without your help the car that I love would have been history a long time age,so once again many thanks.

All The Best Kenboy

Hello . If you mean the heater blowers, i thought that was normal cos mine do that. I thought it was the climate control kicking in to keep the tempreture constant.......... ???

Blower cutting in & out is indicative of a faulty HBC :)

if they switch off for 10 secs or so and come back on its the hbc..if they switch on/off sporadically 1-2 secs could be the fan speed potentiometer in the cc..try moving control to a slightly different postion

i had this in both scorps i have exchanged the potentiometers which are identical with the vent selector control which is less critical ..takes 10 mins or so with soldering iron

first step see the voltage drive to the hbc is smooth/linear
