Glovebox Air Vent - no airflow

Featured Replies

Merry Christmas, I hope you all had a nice day.

06 1.9 PD L&K estate.

All vents including Jumbo Box function fine however glovebox air vent, despite being turned to open so I can poke a finger in has no outflow at any temp/vent/fan setting.

Any suggestions like a known fault with the distribution valve(s) or is it a reverse engineer the dash job and have a look see?

TBH I'm not overly fussed but if it's present I'd like it to function as intended.

Pipe tends to come adrift quite easily, did on mine anyway, whip the glove box out and take a look.

Exactly as above, if the side vents are working OK then you can rule out the little microswitch that alters the direction of airflow.

If you pull up the dashboard vents you can see the piping. That might be easier than removing the glove box?
