WAYNE1 Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 lol see above... thought you had a escort just found the problem, with the heater, it is the the plug that connects to the motor, it is a dodgy connection, when i moved the plug it kicked in, and started working, so have took it off and cleaned the connectors, & closed the gap together, and its working fine now.thanks for all your help & advice,much appreciatedwayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
