hey lads, after some advice regarding my heater which has stopped working. basically it didnt come on one day then worked again the next day briefly and has totally stopped working now. i can hear a relay clicking behind the speedo cluster somewhere so guess the relay must be ok? got my meter out and checked the plug to the motor and getting 12volts there as well which varies as the switch gets cycled through the different fan speeds so am i right in thinking it should just be the motor needing replaced? got one coming from matty anyway but just thought id check and see if there was anything else to check? cheers chaps.
tbh if you're getting 12v to the motor, but it's not spinning, then it almost certainly must be the fan motor, right?
The other connector which sits downstream from the fan is afaik an inline resistor that is used to control the fan speed, which could maybe be busted, but then I wouldn't have thought you'd get any volts at the motor.

Yeah kinda thought I was stating the obvious but not so hot with electrics so thought I'd ask in case I missed something lol. There's power at.the plug so should be the motor fingers. Crossed
