Heater blower casing

Well … I’ve started up the rice burner and it all going great, the low speed fans come on at 94 degree and Im tuning in the high speed fans for 100 or so and I thought I’d try the heater blower …

Uh oh !! fan wheel is catching on something and nasty burning Nylon smell… wasnt like this 6 months ago …

Nope the heater box has fallen apart !!

Anyone had to take there heater box out ? - it looks like you have to get the master cylinders out of the way first

what a coincidence - I was only watching a mechanic at a local Lotus independant on Saturday removing the very same from an S2 111s with aircon - what a Cows C*nt of a Job!!!

(fan resistor block was well shafted/corroded) These cars are not for using every day through winter and leaving out in the elements

from memory it needed everything but the master cylinder shifting - and - it’s a bloody tight fit! I think the heater box and fan unit are separate and he pulled the whole thing out together.

Could be different on an S1??? but the space is same just the config of the components around it.

�365 quid !!!

Comes as a complete unit including heater matrix …

Andy - that can’t be right - I had my heater matrix go a while back and don’t think i paid anything like that for the replacement bits. I’ll dig the invoice out if you need further info.

Steve

Its the complete unit

Thats blower casing, fan wheel, matrix etc etc

Cant just buy the case on its own … you can however buy the matrix seperate …

As I just paid 4.30 for a grommet I can beleive anything.

I was thinking of repairing it but its cracked in a number of places

Oh OK.

I’d be tempted to use a roll of duct tape - there’s nothing structural there, is there?

Andy, my old heater is on the shelf at Phoenix somewhere - any use?

Russ

Yes !!! -

If its still there let me know how much you want - drop me a PM or something - I can arrange to collect

You can have it Mate - I will ask them if it is still around.
