Tell me about it. In the snow yesterday it was misting up a treat.

I was thinking of something like this -

Would it de-mist though?

John, that will do fine, but think you may need to purchase ten for 0 degrees (1 kilowatt) and 20 (2 kilowatts) for minus -5 degrees :wink::wink::wink::wink:

One might get me out of trouble until the summer comes :-)

I can see the only real solution is going to biting the bullet and removing the dash.

Never had as much trouble as this when I had my Range Rover...



clover:
I was thinking actually what a luxury 200watts would be. About the same as the second fan setting as was :-) If I bought 10 of them I'd be nearly as warm as I would in a normal car!

Got into Pinky today and was showing my boss how the heater had died and as I operated the lever. I noticed the fan was trying to kick it. It span up for a few micro seconds then stopped. We had a jiggle with the switch (and gave things a tap with a hammer :-) ). Could not get it to come back into life.

I drove home and bit a speed bump a bit too fast and bingo... I now have a working fan again. Been working fine since and no smoke out the vents.

How very very odd...
