VX Blower repair
My blower was left on full. The following day, I started the car and the blower was dead on all settings. The repair was simple. I checked the Blower Fuse under the bonnet (40A Fusible Link F/L). That was Ok, I checked the two relays under the steering column by setting the blower control to max with the ignition. They both clicked when pulled out individually. I then stuck my head under the passenger side. Pulled out the power lead to the fan. I checked there was 12V present with a DMM or 12V globe. It was all present and correct. I then removed the fan cover by taking out the 4 securing phillips screws. I removed the fan by loosening the 3 retaining screws. The fan motor came apart easily by removing the two retaining bolts on the casing end cap. In there I found a bi-metal heat protection switch. It was dirty. Cleaned the switch with a small file. I then put the motor back together, checked it by reconnecting it to the blower wire. It worked fine. Refitting was easy and just the reverse of removing it.
Hope that helps.
