So after a year I've finally gotten around to troubleshooting why my fresh air blower fan doesn't work. Some deoxit and scraping away crud with a long screwdriver got the low and mid settings on the fan to work. It seems though that the little borders that create a detent in the slider movement between settings is preventing the contact arm from reaching the third setting. It's like the contact arm isn't long enough to make it over the last detent border. Anyone know if there's anything that can be done? Any adjustments?
You can (hopefully!) see how much bigger the last detent is in the pic. Not an easy shot to get through the ashtray hole!!! Attached thumbnail(s)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) Haha! I know right! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) The fresh air blower didn't work on that car either. But the holes in the back of the front wheel wells and in the front of the floor pan provided plenty of fresh air straight to your feet anyway! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) |
