Long story short, the heater used to work on 1 and 4. But not it doesn't work at all on any number. Could the blower motor be gone in it completely?
Need to get this sorted soon as the weather is getting colder, and it helps to have something to demist the windows.
First thing check fuses
Already checked. Just to clarify its the ones under the driver side, 2 15A fuses?
If fuses are good power the blower up directly with power probe etc and see if it works. I dont think it will be rio card if it worked on 1 before.

Switch on fan to 4 then try kicking or a few uppercuts below the glovebox area, report back when done.
Just bought a new rio card and still the same.Originally Posted by Turbo Gav
Also tried percussive maintenance with no joy.
I was thinking the brushes on the motor were worn out. I had this on my hatch but a swift hook was enough to get it going until I replaced it.
As Gav said try powering the motor with a 12v supply or get the multimeter out to see if the blower gets power and earth when switched on then take it from there.
Went out today with a large hammer and gave it a wee knock. Seems to get the motor going, although very slowly. How do I go about removing it for a closer look?
