pugpete1108 62 1 Cars Posted March 24, 2009 after sorting out so many problems on this motor, another one just pops up. The fan moter on my 306 is running but there is no air being blown out grrr. my first thought is that the actual fan has sheared off the shaft and is not turning when the motor is? also are these accesable from underneath without taking out the dash? god i hope so Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miamichris 9 Posted March 24, 2009 (edited) this happened to me mate and it was a strange one. I lifted the scuttle panel off and the rubber cover over the heater intake hole had got sucked in and was blocking it! So as you said I could hear the fan going but no air coming out. Give this a try, mine also does this thing once in a while where the blower just completely stops randomly, then I strip the dash down and it starts again for no apparent reason! french electrics!

ablister 31 Posted March 24, 2009 fan is quite easy to get to, it's under the glovebox, held in by 3 (iirc) screws. Might have to take the carpet trim off if you have one. You'll see it when you stick your head under Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pugpete1108 62 1 Cars Posted March 27, 2009 Have you tried the brown relay in the fusebox by the steering wheel? bloody thing its now totally stopped working grrr have checked the fan-its ok have checked the fuse-its ok will check the brown fuse nxt(is ti the only brown fuse), it should click right when the knob is turned? also after looking on the 306 forum there is a resistor pack on the air inet which can also fail. now i have also got a flat tyre.............. anyone want a ph1 xsi, going cheap?

miamichris 9 Posted April 3, 2009 have you tried changing the heater resistor? I was told these are common to give up so I was going to do this when mine stopped working but then it started again and its been fine since! don't know about the relay, only other things I can think of would be to check all the fuses or maybe change the heater control panel for a known good one?
