All working normally now; air belting out with ignition on and reverts to slow turnover on solar.
I wonder if the low battery voltage had somehow messed up the changeover relay and it was stuck in "solar" mode yesterday. |
I’ve just bought a fan from a8parts. I went ahead and ordered the fan ‘blind’ as it was pretty obvious it was that. In the recent hot weather the fan was ticking quite loudly and got louder and louder - a sure sign of a worn down commutator.
It would suddenly start working when bumped over a pothole or some such but wouldn’t stay working for very long before getting stuck again. I too have the solar sunroof. I specifically asked for a fan from a non-solar sunroof car for obvious reasons.
Is yours ticking at all? (I only ask as you said ticking over - was that a metaphor lol? Or just spinning quietly?)
