rear heater fan

Post by Nutcase » Thu Oct 10, 2013 10:04 pm

Just fit new rad and long o/s metal pipe which goes to rear heater , bled system etc, all hoses hot, temp stable, bubbles appear to have stopped but for some reason rear fan has stopped working, now is this a coincidence or have I done something wrong, and could it just be the fuse. Cheers :D

Likely to be a coincidence. Check the fuse and also double check you've got the 'rear' switch on up front.

If you have manual controls, there will be a rocker switch marked 'fan' or 'rear' to the right of the steering wheel. If you've got digital controls, there will be a push switch marked 'rear' on the panel. Without this being switched on, the rear fan will not work.
