wezza9 Posted December 21, 2010 Author Share Posted December 21, 2010 ok i got the fan out found the odd leaf but a load of ice in there its wet too so cleaned all ice out and leafs put back and now it runs at one speed so think when ist jammed up it may have burn the speed controlers out so ordered the kit or ceramic ones now a Q where could all the water be coming from ? ( do not say snow lol ) i mean how is it getting in to the fan and can i fix it its not dripped much so not alot in there this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 yea water comes in from outside and drips into the heater and onto the floori am not 100% clear on this, i done it once but i have forgot how to do it again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wezza9 Posted December 22, 2010 Author Share Posted December 22, 2010 james does that mean the seal has gone around the window and the window has to come out or does it mean rust or 3rd ...... there was no damp carpet so it has only happened whith the snow ?

DAVEMB2 Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 mmm there is another poss that i had . my pass floor would get soaked and the fan was full well not full but had a lot of water getting in . so take off the skuttle pannel the black plastic where the wipers are and you will see a hole where the fan sucks air from outside . now check no leafs dirt etc is blocking the water run off (if you get me ) when a put water down the window it just happen to drip right into the hole to the fan so i just may the wall of the hole a bit bigger and bent it a tad so no water would drip into it never had a prob again (god what have i just said ) when you take the pannel off you will see what i mean 1"£££$££"!!
