The Younger Mrs S.' new (second-hand) 500 has dubious centre air vents.
One of the vents works okay. The rotating open/close button doesn't seem to roll all the way up... it stops about half a centimeter short... but it flows air or not, correctly depending on the button.
The other vent doesn't flow any air at all.. but the rotating open/close button operates through the entire range and rolls all the way up (open) and down (closed).
I'll remove the vents to have a nose around behind.. but does removal require the radio to be removed first?
Has anyone else had a similar problem and what am I looking for (apart from the obvious dislodged pipes/jammed vanes)?
