try pressing the buttons on the hevac one at a time whilst you turn the ignition of and on,this teaches the motor where it should send the air to,or is it the hot/cold motors??

Could be any number of things, RCboy, if you head off to the stealers with a blend motor problem, the quote will be over £2000!!!! And no, they cannot be "reset" (if only!!!!) :doh:

If you know what you're doing, you could change them yourself; or, if Midlands based, this chap does them for £340 and comes to your work or home to do it: Jason 07903077948

It may not be the blends, or it may be the blends and the control unit (under the radio, also called HEVAC unit). You don't need the diagnostic machine for this one, but you do need someone who knows what they are doing.

Can get the motors and stripping not a problem but will they cycle to correct positions when fitted am i right in thinking there are 3 or is it 4 so most the dash out to change?

the blend motors might be ok, but the air distribution motor will have to be taught where to move to.

mornin john!
