Heatr Blower Malfunction 13 years 3 months ago #20916
The wifey's F has blower issues, seems speeds 1,2 & 3 have ceased to function and apparently #4 works but is noisy at times. No knowing if this is the typical MGR resistor fix or something else as it is normally 1 & 2 that pack up. Input would be gratefully received.

If it is the resistor pack, which it sounds like it is, replace it with ceramic resistors from Maplin - they are great and much more robust - just make sure you wire them together to stop them flopping in the way of the fan blades!

This is a common problem, Roger Parker wrote an article in Enjoying MG on how to replace the resistor pack, i will see if i can find it and post it up. Seem to remember it is a "grovel" job to get it out (as Jon has said)
