My heater blower is having an issue. It sounds like it’s caught on something or there is something preventing it spinning properly. 

 

It’s happening all speeds and it’s not affecting the temperature. Just the speed.

 

I changed the resistor a couple of years back so I don’t think it’s that, although this could be a possibility. 
 

I have attached a short video trying to capture the sound. 
 

 

Thanks, Matt.

Thanks Wino. I will have a look at this tomorrow and see if it fixes my issue. 
 

Fingers Crossed 🤞🏻

Had a go at that above but not joy. Ended up taking the fan unit out. 
 

The fan works ok (noisey) for around 10 seconds then slows to a stop. 
 

Going to order a New fan and see if that fixes it. 

Please let us know the outcome.

Problem solved. I got a second hand Motor from my local breakers and now it works perfectly. Although there is a little whine I suspect can be cured with some wd40.

 

Oh and the replacement fan motor cost me £10 👍🏻

WD40 or any similar will definitely help. Mine was stuck when I bought the car due to the previous owner had the car sat for almost a year unmoved. A lot of WD40 and it is unstuck and working. The fan axle is prone to rust and gets stuck.
