This is an easy fix, if your Vauxhall Corsa D (2008 in this case) fan will only work in 4 (or sometimes 1) then it's because the resistor pack has failed.
It's an easy fix, the resistor pack is just under the glovebox on the passenger side, no panels to remove. Just a 7mm bolt to undo and you can remove the old unit.
The part is easily ordered: amzn.to/3vl28HF
Comes with replacement bolt as many times it's been lost!
Should only take you 5-10 minutes and will get your Vauxhall Corsa heater/blower motor working in all positions.

Thanks for your help mate this helped me out a lot

@zimfrancis Год назад

very good video easy instructions and easy to follow many thanks. a relatively easy and low cost repair.

Thanks its really useful information appreciated 👏

Thank you very much

Looks like you may have a bigger problem if the resistor and connector keep failing the fan motor is drawing to much current and probably needs replacing good video if it’s just a simple resistor replacement

Hi Peter, yep I'd suspected as much too that the fan is probably on it's way out drawing too much current and causing the resistor packs to keep melting!

Hi nice video where can i buy one of blow resistor .. my wife car gof same problems

@TheDJFra1 Год назад

God someone has done that usual wiring repair before but i hoped you checked it was done properly as the insulation looks pretty iffy....lol sorry i commented just before you actually said that

@junkendriven Год назад

Haha, yeah was a bit dodgy, but I've got to admit, I didn't check/repair it properly! As you saw just chuck the new one in and hope for the best :)

Mine blows at all speeds, however A/C kicks in only if position 4 is selected. Does fault come from same resistor ? Cheers😊

@trizzytrikz8311 9 месяцев назад

Does the resistor also apply for demist?

@meirionevans9088 Год назад

is it the same when it works 1 and and not 3 and 4

@junkendriven Год назад

Yes, if it works in only some positions it's usually the resistor so needs replacing

@vas5875 Год назад

I have a problem. My fan is only working in speed 4, what you'd recommend?

@junkendriven Год назад

Definitely change the resistor as that's a common reason for only speed4 working

@anuebunwannaemeka6177 9 месяцев назад

My fan blows on all 4 speeds but it never gets hot. What could be the problem?

@junkendriven 9 месяцев назад

That's be down to your heater matrix which flows the coolant round and the blower then blows over it for the warm air. Check your coolant first as if it's very low or not flowing correctly that'd cause issues.

@anuebunwannaemeka6177 9 месяцев назад

I checked with a garage, the guy said it was the resistor, but after watching your video, I had some doubts. So I checked with another guy yesterday, and he suggested flushing the system and changing coolant as he observed some pipes were hot as they should while some was cold. I just hope it works after that because the heater matrix would definitely cost a fortune. Thanks alot

@junkendriven 9 месяцев назад

Makes more sense it being related to coolant, remember the Corsa thermostat opens at 100oC so quite high before water will flow round all the coolant hoses and radiator. The two pipes in and out of the matrix can clearly be seen, in engine bay look to the right of the engine and towards the firewall, you'll see the heater matrix pipes to check if they get warm or not.

@anuebunwannaemeka6177 9 месяцев назад

Exactly, those were the 2 pipes that weren't hot. What are the chances the heater matrix is still good and flushing the pipes would make the heater work?

@barryjackson8512 Год назад

Canny video. I normally pull the motor while on and clean the contacts. Another common fault on the D

@junkendriven Год назад

Great point Barry, I suspect the motor probably does need a bit of silicone grease sprayed in as this is the second resistor it's burnt out so it suggests the motor is pulling too much current. Thanks for the good tip
