Ibiza cupra heater fault. Help required!

[NoNeed]

My trusty old GTI cupra (R plate) has a fault with the heater/fan. It doesn't work on numbers 1,2,3 and on 4 it starts but there is a burning rubber smell.

How do I fix this?


Thanks in advance.

id say take the unit out and have a look, although it could be a bugger to get to, im sure they start with the heater box and build cars around them.

Sounds like the resistor at the side of the blower has given up

Thanks for the quick replies. What's the best way for a novice to get to the blower unit?
