Hi Piggy,
Thanks for prompt reply.
Do you mean it's that easy ... lift the bonnet, hit the heater with a spanner?
At my age (75, subjural haematoma, inguinal hernia, athritic knees, etc) I'm reluctant to lift the bonnet of modern cars, so I assumed the heater blower was deep in the bowels of the dashboard, and beyond my dexterity. Now, if it was a 1959 Land Rover, I'd have no qualms ... see photo.
Maybe the Pug will not have to find a new home after all. I'll take a look after brekky, subject to SWMBO allowing me away from hanging pictures in our new home. And I can find my tools, I think I've brought all of them up from Wales.
Hmmm! If the fan spins on a jump wire direct from battery, that would mean it would run on a "jury" switch, which will take the rush off fixing it quickly, which in turn means I won't need to rig the jury switch, cos the pressure will be off until she has an early MOT and her future is decided. Thanks again.
