Hi,

i had the heater blower regulator go.
It took otu some fuses as well.

I have disconnected the regulator and ordered a new part.
I have replaced fuses 4 and 7 to get dash board/clocks back.

Now the wipers, the indicators and the flasher for central lookign don't work.

I have looked at the fuse card and it seems to be fuse 41?

From what i have read on here there is no fuses 41
I have rea don here that it coudl be fuse 5 under the bonnet?
Or should that be under the rear seat?

First of all coudl soemone explain why there are no fuses 41 to 44?

Also, if fuse 5 looks ok, i have read that it coudl be the relay.
Now......i have a right hand drive car, so where exactly is the relay?
If the fuse 5 is ok and i have to change the relay, is this easy?

Is it just -
disconnect battery, pull relay, put in new one, reconnect battery?

And which is the wiper/indicator relay ?

Sorry for the questions.

Have a nice weekend,
Phil.

Fuses actually fitted can depend on the spec of a car - if a certain option is not fitted , then the fuse for that option can just be left out .

The faults you mention can be due to a faulty multifunction stalk .

Having said that , multiple electronic failures can also be caused by a faulty OVP relay .
