   Only have the full blast setting available on mine. Bought what i thought was the right part from ECP but turns out it wasn't. Anyone know where i can get a new one of these?

   It sounds like the resistor pack on the blower motor is faulty mate.Its easier to just get a good used blower motor.(same motor right across the saxo range)

   Hi there, is it worth just getting the resistor or am i better of getting the entire motor? Just weighing up the options.
   Brand new resistor vs used blower motor? About the same cost.

   Tbh only you can answer that one mate,just saves a bit of time not having to change over the resistor pack.

   Took the motor out and as per another thread i drilled out the fans rivets and soldered a wire across the thermo resistor. Fixed it! (Surprised face) just riveted it back up and fitted it. All done with an hour and a half and cost bugger all.

   The wire trick is an old 1 & is only a temporary fix.
