[tmk93]

hi, im currently in the process of getting a roadworthy for my dc2 and one of the things to fix was the heater so I can demist my windows my aircon/heater only works currently on high so my mechanic tols me I need a new heater/blower resistor swich, I purchased one but when I when to install it I found out mine what differnt completly I was expecting a coil yet in mine it was differnt below I have atteched a picture of it is this a differnt type of heater resistor swich or is it complelty the wrong thing it was behind my glove box and is the same shape as the hester resistor swich I baught but I diffenrnt shape plug and not a coil
as mine is a jap import I wasnt to sure weither this is what they use or not

please help

you have climate control

the coil is used when you have a fan switch with non climate control ( AUDM )

the transistor is used when you have climate control as the climate control control unit uses that to vary the fan speed rather than a manual switch and resistor.

it may be possible to repair your fan speed controller, possibly blown FET/Transistor

whats a*FET/Transistor im completly lost when it comes to a/c stuff

they are electronic switching devices, the round silver thing in the left photo

ohk thanks
I saw the whole thing for sale for $100 if I get that would that most likely solve my problem?

if it looks the same possibly yes

I usually test the old unit to confirm it is dead, sometimes they can be fixed
