Grand Voyager 2005 2.8 Diesel Blower Work Intermittently

[chill6834]

Hi all i am new to the forum and this is my first post.

 

For the last 2 weeks Ive noticed that the blower fails to come on in any position on the dial although sometimes it will randomly burst into life.

 

I'm aware that the heater blower resistor is usually the prime suspect but isnt that normally when the blowers are stuck on full?

Anyway i have ordered and fitted a new blower resistor. The blowers where working normally for a day but has since returned to only working when it wants to.

 

I know there are one or two delay functions built in to the heating system but the manual says the blowers will always work when defrost mode is selected.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions?

 

Regards,

 

Carl.

If anybody is interested ive solved the problem. it turned out to be a loose wire to the plug that connects to the blower resistor.

My blowers only blow on full could this be a similar problem like yours?

If the blower is on full it usually means that the blower motor resistor pack has failed.

 

I found a guy in the UK that does economical repairs to some types of blower motor resistor packs but unfortunately not the Valeo model fitted to my Voyager. I had to buy a new one.
