I'm looking at the possibility of replacing this myself as my fan will only work on setting 4 which is pretty indicative of it having gone.  Can anyone point me in the direction of a suitable YouTube clip that shows me how to do it please.

 

I have a 2014 skoda rapid spaceback 1.6tdi 

 

Also there seems to be a variety of manufactures that make the replacement part and the cost varies widely. Could someone tell me which manufacturer is the best one please as I'd rather not do it again.

 

Thanks in advance for any help offered

It is in the fan housing, positioned in the trunking from the fan to the central distribution assembly. See component 8 (this may be for a LHD drive Rapid).

 

 

Undoubtedly a pain to get to. Start by taking the glovebox off and having a good look at the fan trunking. This chap is dealing with a LHD Fabia but it'll be similar. He finds it at 2:43.

 

 

I'd start with a 10 quid cheapie - if it dies the job will be much quicker the second time.

 

 

Thanks so much. I now have a working fan!
