Check that all the linkages are present on the side of the heater duct. It is to the left of the pedals. One is missing on mine and it stops it changing over between feet and screen, screen, feet etc.

Welcome to the forum
this FAQ may help find the issue -
http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/ ... 43&t=28727
Is it manual controls or digital climate control? there should be a demist button, putting the ac on helps to demist, but if you're getting an issue with the screen misting up, it may be a front heater matrix issue if the linkages are ok, if so, be careful as this is an integral part of the cooling system for the engine (what engine, diesel, v6 petrol or 2litre petrol?).

Hi
Have you tried to push the Aircon button again? Does it go to Aircon Econ?
If you press it twice it should stop the Aircon and go to blower only.

May be stating the obvious here, but you won't get any heat until the engine is warm either

Would you like me to go and record mine on a short vid clip?
