Rattly heater fan


Recommended Posts

Hi all

I tend not to use my heater as the fan is very rattly, though it does seem to work. Is this an easy fix, I assume it is a bearing issue?

I don't want to have to remove the dash if I can avoid it!

I manage reasonably well with the scuttle vent open so it isn't a pressing matter but I would like to have it fully (and quietly) working one day

Hi Andy,

it is a common problem. Usually just 'rattling' on start up for a moment and then getting worse.

The bad news is the heater has to come out to sort the motor. This can be done with the dash insitu - but a right bugger.

When out some folk replace with a more modern heater (Clayton). However when cleaned out these original heaters are very good.
