Variable heater control Mod from Dutch company.
they have sent me the english instructions, but the translation is appalling, wonder who they used Noddy?
(WTF is a beldon cable and what valve is connected to the fan heater switch
1) Beldon cable means wire-cable?
2) Valve means vents?
That aside it seems straight forward enough though, I think they are saying open heater fan switch to position 1, ie no fan just vents open and lock off cable in this position.
The rest of the instructions are poor and most of the pictures are not helpful. I am assuming they have employed the 'Haynes Manual' photographer, no one else has the ability to take pictures of things to make them completely unrecognisable (even with a LHD) and from angles that defy the laws of physics, nevertheless the final picture makes does make some sense!
Seems like a nice little mod its around 100 euros inc shipping.
Yes you could make this yourself using a Variable speed controller (VSC ) or Pulse Width Control module (PWM ), if you are confident with elecytrickery and can wield a soldering iron like a jedi. The motor control circuit is fairly simple. An ignition switched 12V feed is fed to the blower motor from the fuse box. This is then earthed by the speed switch on one of two wires - one of which has a resistor to limit the current and produce a slower speed.
