Heater Blower Problems - Newbie

Featured Replies

Hey all, had a quick breeze through to see if there was a common problem but couldn't see anything..

My heater blower on my 2007 (56 plate) has all but stopped, all LCD displays are normal - it thinks its working, but nothing or next to nothing coming out of it, fuses have been checked and are good. I had a long drive yesterday and there is some heated air coming out, but like I said very little and probably not the amount that normally comes out on the lowest blow setting.

Any common problems known that this might fall into? Thanks!

Check pollen filter first

Thanks, I'll check it out

Pollen filter quite dirty but not made a difference. :unsure: Should I try the following..?

"On the E(A)TC module, briefly PRESS the "OFF" and "FOOTWELL" buttons simultaneously for at least 2 seconds, then PRESS "AUTO" within 1.5 seconds. The self-diagnosis which then starts lasts a few seconds. An animated display appears in the E(A)TC display during this time. Any faults found are displayed in the form of trouble codes. Example: First of all, "93" flashes for 2 seconds, then "42" flashes for 2 seconds - DTC 9342. If no faults are stored, then all of the segments in the display are actuated. The following table gives information on the possible DTCs and their corresponding meanings. Diagnosis mode can be stopped at any time by PRESSING any button on the E(A)TC module."

only problem - I don't seem to have a "AUTO" button..?

help!

I said in earlier post there was a small airflow, I think that may have just been movement from driving, as theres nothing whilst stationary..

try pressing and holding the on and recirculation buttons?

  • Author

thanks but that did nothing..

I tried it with heater off and heater on as well..

Right firstly remove pollen filter altogether there 3 little motors on side of heater box u need take them off an check none the door flaps broke then test blower motor if these all good more the likely climate control module needs replacement
