The fan/heater in my car stopped working today.

1. How do i go about fixing this ?

2. Car appears to be running smoothly but after a 20 mile run on dual carraigeway at about 90ish i opened the bonnet and the coolant water was bubbling a little in the header tank and i could hear it in the coolant pipes. Been told before that this can be normal in a cossie but should i be worried ??

3. Are both these connected ?

Thanks peeps

link the 2 wires on the temp sender if the fans cut in chage it or put a switch inline

or if not put a temp line to the other side of the temp to make them work with a switch

I mean fan/heater as inside the car not the fan/radiator in the engine bay, that cuts in fine when i stop the car.

Also, is it normal for the coolant water to bubble a little ??

the strut brace

thermostat stuck/fucked or air lock in system or has the actual blower stopped altoghether or is it just blowin cold air?

Sounds beyond repair to me. NO Heaters IN SCOTLAND
Bring it up and i'll give you a good price for it against a TD Rasta Van










Nah seriously if you are still struggling at the weekend just pop up and i'll have a looksie for ya

It is normal for bubbles to appear from the turbo coolant return, but only from this pipe.

If your heater fan isnt working, check the fuse first of all, then check the resistor assembly

The two are probably not related!

Some answers

Blower has stopped altogether ?? Whats this mean ??

The coolant water bubbling, Is this normal or connected to my heater problem.

Im not technically gifted !!

Not connected Seems strange they have both started happening together

Why is the coolant in my header tank bubbling its only a wee bit

Has it down to MSD last month and Stu said engine was fine

Look carefully and see where it's coming from - I bet it's the turbo return

It bubbles because the turbo is f'kin hot!

The blower has likely packed up for an entrely different reason - it could only EVER have a very very small effect on coolant temps if you were running the heater on hot, and the fan on full...

Thanks neil

Will look in the morning when its light.

So one of the pipes going into the header tank is the turbo return ??

Yup - it's the top one on the header tank
