Heater blower motor
Removal
1Disconnect the battery negative (earth) lead
(see Chapter 5, Section 1).
2Release the four clips (by pulling them out)
securing the passenger side footwell upper
trim panel, then withdraw the panel.
3Unplug the motor’s electrical connector.
4Lift the motor’s retaining lug slightly, twist
the motor anti-clockwise (seen from beneath)
through approximately 30°, then withdraw the
assembly.
5The motor’s control resistor can be
removed by sliding a slim screwdriver into the
slot provided in one end. Press the
screwdriver in approximately 5 mm against
spring pressure, and prise the resistor out
(see illustration).
Refitting
6Refitting is the reverse of the removal
procedure. Refit the motor, and twist it
clockwise until the retaining lug engages
securely (see illustration).
Heater matrix
Removal
7Disconnect the battery negative (earth) lead
(see Chapter 5, Section 1).8Drain the cooling system (see Chapter 1).
9Disconnect the coolant hoses from the
heater matrix unions protruding through the
engine compartment bulkhead (see
illustrations).
10Working inside the passenger
compartment, remove the trim panels from
each footwell, just in front of the centre
console. Each panel is secured by two
screws. If additional clearance is required, the
centre console can be removed as well (see
Chapter 11), but this is not essential.
11Remove the single screw to release the air
duct in the base of the heater unit (see
illustration).
12Remove the three Torx-type screws (size
T20) securing the air distributor to the heater
unit bottom cover, then release the clips.There is a single plastic clip on each side, and
additional metal clips may be found. Push the
duct up to retract it, and withdraw the air
distributor (see illustration).
13Release the clips - there are two plastic
clips on each side, and additional metal clips
may be found - then withdraw the heater
unit’s bottom cover, complete with the matrix
(see illustration).
14Undo the screw and withdraw the clamp
to separate the matrix from the bottom cover
(see illustration).
Refitting
15Refitting is the reverse of the removal
procedure. Additional metal clips may be
required to secure the heater unit’s bottom
cover and the air distributor. Ensure that the
