yer its a 172 facelift 2002 climate comtrol,

sorry for not stating

its usually the resistor rather than the motor, there is a way to test, but i cant remember off hand, anyway, we stock both, motor is 40, resistor is 60, both with a 3 month warranty.

Mine has started doing this.

Open your bonnet and you need to remove the plastic scuttle (plastic trim at the bottom of the windscreen) Its in two sections and you need to remove the d/side, really easy just pop the clip out by the wing and it pulls out.

You then see, two plugs - one on the right is for the resistor and on the left is the motor.

Now my problem lies with the motor, as i gave it a bang with my hand and it came back to life and has worked since....

Oh and from what i found when i did some searching on the forum its usually the resistor that fails.

Is this a common problem, cos 3 days ago mines also stopped working, I've got 172cup 2003 without air con, does that make a difference?

Cold is not the word!!! -2oC the first day it broke down!!!!

 

[Shopy]

ill take the scuttle panel off and have a look!!!

and ill report back soon

Hi sorry to resurrect an old thread. My heater resistor must be broken as it only stays on full blast all the time.

How did you repair it for £13 an was it easy to do?

thanks
