hi guys heaters just packed up on the 200 disco how much of a job is it to change someone has said its in a unit with the heater matrix ?
cheers

It depends on what caused it to pack up. Switch problems can be fixed without taking the dash out as well as replacing the resistor or the relay. If it's your blower motor then it's an issue. Can you turn on your air con? The heater shares a relay with the air and they have separate motors (I think, anyways, mine does..) and if the air doesn't come on it could be that relay. Switch failure is common, too.hi guys heaters just packed up on the 200 disco how much of a job is it to change someone has said its in a unit with the heater matrix ?

I'm assuming that you mean the lever that goes from recirc to outside air then air, if so yes. That tells you the relay is working and that your switch works. Have you tried to turn on the heater on high? If the resistor is bad sometimes the heater will only work on that setting.so the problem i have may not be the heater fan then ?
right is there 2 fans under the dash because when i move the switch on the left of the fan speed switch a fan comes on is this the same fan or another because if its the same fan mines fine it must be something else.... other than me buying a relay and resistor aswell im stuck
by the way the heater was working on and off for a couple of days prior but has now give up (and did get a slight burning smell)
any ideas please
I don't think you could get wd-40 to the blower from the intake grill approach. You can get to the resistor, though. Sorry.you sayin that i may give it a blast with some wd40 :Cry:
thanks for your help mate
