Heating Problem

[Insulin_Junkie]

So I did a search and couldn't find this...
Anyone had problems with their heating? when I turn the heat/vents on in the car it won't blow unless it's cranked, 1, 2 and 3 all do the same and 4 just blasts it out. Not sure if it's a wiring problem or what.

Anything?

Thanks!

Nice instructions! Do you think it's pretty easy to do or should I go find a mechanic?

 

[ptsb5a]

Do it yourself dude. No sense paying someone to do something this easy.

That's what I like to hear

Yeah, my rule of thumb(s) are:

Do it myself if:

If it doesn't require special tools which can't be rented.
It doesn't require a rack (dropping valve bodies etc.)
It's not something that if you do wrong will have major implications: engine rebuilds etc.
I can do in my driveway in less than 48 hours. (Mine's a daily driver).

I did this acording to the instructions a few weeks back! Works like a charm now, and only had to pay $30 for the resistor!!

Thanks guys!
