Dodgy Heater motor
Hi, i have looked all over this site and cant see anyone with the same problem as me. My heater motor does not run all the time. I have replaced the heater resistor and it sometimes works fine. But then gets a mind of its own and slows down and stops. there is a rattle when it does this, and happens on all settings of the control knob. My truck is a 1991 ln130 ssr ltd.Any help in solving this problem would be great thanks. I just want to know what the best way to fix this is.

Could be the motor itself is duff, or the brushes on the motor.Originally posted by macca
As an aside, how difficult was it to change the heater resister and where is it located, I've lost the 1st 2 speeds on mine!

The heater resistor is a peice of cake to fina and remove, but takes a few goes to get it back in. It is located on the cacbin side of the firewall in the passangers footwell. Kinda jammed in behind heater. This is the thread i used to help find mine. http://www.yotasurf.co.uk/forums/sho...eater+resistor
Have fun hope you find itComment
