Hi All,

I'm a bit desperate as I'm off to cornwall next week and my blower has packed in. I've ruled out the blower itself by using another one, still doesn't work. I would really appreciate some guidance here as I'm not sure what else to try. (not technical really)
My laguna is a 1.8 RT M reg.

As I said any pointers would be greatfully received.

Many thanks in advance

so you did change the old blower with a new one did you ????

did you check all the fuses and connections before doing this ???

usually electrical problems are quite straight forward to fix imo,its either the connection(cables),the earthing(sometimes) ,the device itself ,electric plug or the fuse

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.
Yes it was a used one that I replaced it with but the garage made sure it worked first with a car battery.

The problem started off by being intermittent gradually reducing the time that it stayed on. It also used to make a funny noise when switching the blower on and when it was in use.

What order do you think I should check things.

Thanks

Probably a daft question but do you mean the on/off switch?
