Hi all, I Recently purchased 2000A6 2.7t 6spd. besides the dash looking like a Christmas tree the blower motor for the heat is triping the fuse.I Did a little under the dash and can jump the controls to make blower turn on and off but can't seem to get control head to function properly .Also looks like someone may have been in the wires before me.Any ideas on how to diagnose this problem is it common?........thanks

 

This may not be the answer but I would try and replace the blower motor resister, if thatyear hasthat part.

 

Well I got the blower to work by removing the leed from the variable fan speed control but I can only get it to blow on hight all the other heater control function properly except to fan speed if I hook up the wire the fuse blows.Do you know if there is a way to repair that part of the control head or does it just have to be replaced completly?

 

yep its the resistor and you only get 1 speed.

Hey thanks for the info and the diagram dave. This will make my ride a lot more comfortable in this crappy NY weather!Do you know of a good place to get a replacement resistor pack ?I'm assuming the deal will want my first born for a OEM part.
