feet only heater

Postby johnj » Tue 01.07.2025, 21:20

Hi All

Coming home tonight in the pouring rain (what heatwave) the windscreen fogged up. Set the heater to clear the screen , no difference. On inspection the air flow only goes towards the footwell regardless of which position is selected. Any ideas how to rectify this problem

The direction of the air is vacuum operated, so either remove radio or glovebox and have a peek at those hoses back there, possible with a snake camera. Maybe a hose popped off?

Thanks I'll have a look at the weekend. Was worried the dashboard might require removal.

I had a look today 2 pipes off. Luckily both in the foot well a corrugated one and a normal vacuum hose. Lucky it was there as I could not see the other end of the vacuum pipe. Remember you need the engine on to change which vent the air comes from :oops: Thanks
