911 3.2 heater smoking

[cjb1]

I had a problem last year with my 1988 Carrera 3.2. During the MOT (of all times), smoke started waffting out of the centre dash air vents, there was an electric burning odour also. Eventually a fuse blew and the smoke stopped. After the fuse blew the rear heated screen stopped working. Now the demist blower doesn't work either. Any ideas?

Your fresh air blower motor has burnt out, very common fault on these cars. You need to go in via the luggage area to get to the fan. You may be able to change the motor itself, worst case replace the fan unit as a whole - see type911shop.co.uk for prices

Unsure If the fan an demister are in the same fuse, could be.
