Hi Folks,
Need some advice
The rear blowers have now stopped blowing ,checked fuses ( I think ) and have pressed the button which sends control to the back , on the control panel all the lights are on but no luck , the front heaters are fine
Any ideas????
Thanks

The fan in the back of mine only works with the front fan on as well.

Mines not working... I'm thinking that my control is behind the fridge.. Coz my van is dodgy lol I'm going to see if I can see anything in the morning and check the fuse.

Hopefully something simple is the problem. However, if the fan motor has died [unlikely], I have a spare one at home.

You could try looking to see if nothing has dropped down through the intake vent & jamming the fan...?

The circuit is below, there is one relay controlling the rear Fan much as in the front but only 3positions of speed and Off, the relay is down with he rest of the gubbins;

Geoff, Doesn't the rear heater have a "resistor pack" set up??

Yes hence the 3 speeds, they could have popped, but the reason for popping is normally corroded motor bearings, which are a lot less likely in the rear than the front, but yes still a factor to consider.

think Jaylee is questioning if an object fell in and stopped the fan blades it could simulate a fan seizure and pop the reisitor pack?
Only problems i've encountered with rear fans were usually relay related as geoff already mentions
