Blower has packed up suddenly.
Power at point where the blower wires go into the inner wing, so looks like a faulty motor or connection?
The question is.. how do you access the blower?
I can see a fibre glass panel with 2 black self tappers. I took out the screws but they don’t hold the panel on as I thought ( I guess it’s holding the blower to the panel?)
Does that panel come off with a bit of persuasion to lift out the motor, or am I in the wrong place?!
Cheers

So when the headlight is removed, it’s a bit of all creatures great and small to reach it?

It’s a pre cat but was repaired with a 500 front end. Therefore I think it will be in the inner wing?
If so, does the panel where the wires go through prise off (siliconed on?).

Just an update...
Had a good look in the rats nest with the battery removed and a good light.
The spade connectors that attach to the connector block ( on mine anyway) had been pulled off when I replaced the battery.
Working now. Just thought I’d share my findings!

interesting, did you find the location of your blower?

Well done, you fixed it.
No. I thought it would be behind the “panel “ that the heater wires go through but I don’t think it is a panel?
Took out the 2 black self tappers and tried to remove it but it looks like it is a continuation of the floor??
Thankfully realised the wires weren’t attached so stopped there.
Mines a bit of a Frankenstein- pre cat been repaired with a 500 front so it could be anywhere?!!
