A few months ago, I improved the heating of my 1979 SC by replacing the dead fan in the engine bay with a working one, supplied second-hand by one of the excellent readers of this forum.
Guess what?! The main fresh air fan now seems to have died. It was a bit intermittent for a while, then there was a worrying electrical burning smell and since then, no ventilation fan. Luckily, it's winter and the heating is still pretty good. But, come summer, I'm going to want ventilation.
Is a dead fan the only likely problem?
How do I get at this fan?
Anyone got a spare working one?
Why, when everything else in the car works really well, do things keep dying in the HVAC?!
