    Low coolant level? maybe air trapped in the heat exchange matrix?

    As far as I'm aware the resistor only controls the fan speed. The heat is controlled by the large central knob. Assuming your cooling system is working ok.

    Callum,

    Im a new member and I have experienced the same thing, my fan did not work on 1,2,3 but worked on setting 4. Everything else worked including the heating. I bought a Thermo fuse from Maplins for 79p and took the old one off and soldered the new one on. I had to drop the glovebox out to do this.

    Now I have a fully functioning fan. I knew from other posts on here it was the thermo fuse or the resister pack but wanted to check the inexpensive item first without shedding out for the resister pack.

    Thought I would share just in case you wanted to consider this and test this first.

    Ian
