Turn the stereo up, or don't turn the fan on? :P






sorry :oops:
Once you've got the side panel off, it's not that difficult to take it out, one or two nuts from underneath the van. It could be something's dropped in the fan? or got caught in the blades maybe? what sort of noise?
May be worth checking the nut's are tight underneath.

If your nuts are tight, it may be the bearing goosed or even the fan's popped off the spindle somehow. At least spare ones should be readily available from breakers etc (Harry?) if needed, as they don't seem to give too many problems.

Hi

Whilst on the subject of rear heaters - I cannot seem to get my rear heater to work at all. I have the usual vents at the rear of the top of the cab but no heat - does any have any information or advice to offer about this?

Thanks

JH

Have you switched it on from the front? This may help http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/ ... 43&t=28727

You are turning it on from the front ?
You do have a rear control box ?
The temperature slider on the rear control box is slid to the Max ?
