Re: heater fans not blowing

It all depends were you get it done, fiat wanted nearly 800.00 todo as the claim the dashboard has to be removed, in the end including the part i had it done for £234.00....There is a place in nottingham that does it. You would need to check your manual for were the fuses are located.

If you are interested in the place in Nottingham let me know and i'll give you the details

Cool Re: heater fans not blowing

Heater fan switch is controlled by one of them resistor thingies so it may not necessarily be the fans at all also could be faulty fan switch its self or a faulty relay I would first check that you have voltage going to the fan before you go paying out on a new unit

Pollen filter shouldn't affect the working of the fan electrically but if you want to change it check out the stilo guides for removal and replacement [good old decks]
