I added a console to my car, including a replacement heater lever with the correct offset handle. I was careful to attach the spade connector to it before bolting the lever down.

Now I find that moving the lever to upright doesn't turn the blower on like it used to. Also the little square illuminated blower light next to the lever no longer lights up.

Before I take a close look at the circuit diagram, can anyone guess what I may have wrong, from these symptoms?

Thanks!

1) Connector had fallen off in tunnel
2) Bad bulb

The fuse on the relay board? Have you swapped the relays around?

Sorry - I wasn't more clear - I found both problems. A bad bulb, and the connector on the heater blower lever had dropped off (loose crimp).
