Hi Guys
I've been following the Heater Blower thread- (most of it above my head, even the acronyms!) and I wonder if anyone else has experience of problems with a pesky little beast called the Blower Interior Sensor- which is the little plastic-bladed fan that sits behind the small grille to the left of the aircon button and (if I understand it) pulls cabin air through to be sampled by the control unit. I think it's meant to run all the time also continues to run for some minutes after switch-off.
Mine only works intermittently. Sometimes it can be got going with a few taps, or by blowing compressed air through the grille. Sometimes not. I've changed it once, but for another 'pre-owned' one (a new one is £140+ would you believe) which could also be 20 years old!. The question: is it likely to be the fan unit itself at fault, or could it be the connection to the control unit, or...something else?
Over to the experts!
