Thanks

What would put pressure in the system as I bleed the system as per videos no more than 2 months ago?

Re: Rear heater has stopped working
Hi Geoff
Just want to thank you for all your help. I fixed the rear resistor by replacing the transistor inside £7 well spent and it all works fine.
Thanks again
