Hi, everyone I am new to this but I am looking for some advice.

My Freelander's heating/demist system was working fine today and all of a sudden just stopped working for no apparent reason. I changed the fuse and it still wasn't working, does anyone have any idea what could be wrong with it??

Thanx

Is it still working on speed 4 but not 1,2 and 3? if so it will be the resistor and you can either buy a complete replacement or purchase new resistors and solder them in.

I fitted this kit last year and the resistors are far better quality than the originals

If its not working on speed 4 then its not your resistor pack as this only controls speeds 1,2 & 3.

Check the electrical connections to the fan switch on the dash - mine gave up last year and opening the glove box under the steering wheel then slamming it shut again got it working

Hi, well I took it upto my mums friends garage and got him to have a look at it, turned out there was a lose connection to the left of the clutch just up a wee bit. Could of been knocked whilst driving or something.

Can't believe it was something so simple!!!!
