Heater Blower Not Heating

Post by kris »

Hi Folks,

The heater blower jobbie in ma pug has stopped producing heated air. The fan/blower bit still works fine, just no heat.

Has anyone got any ideas where my problems could lie or is it gonna be cold forever? :cry:

If it helps to know, it's a D8. Cheers :)

Maybe you should check the hoses that go through the bulkhead to see if they get hot - the matrix is fed all the time, a flap inside the heater directs the air through it if heat is needed so if either or both are cold then there's either a blockage or an air lock. If they're both hot hen you need to check this flap, they're run by a similar motor to the recirculation flap but don't seem to fail anything like as often.
