No heater fan at any speed ??
Hi,
researching this problem I notice that if the fan resistor is faulty then the fan will work on setting 4 only. On mine, no heater settings work, could it still be the resistor pack ? The motor was not particularly noisy, a little rumble now and then. It suddenly stopped working today, checked the fuses and they are fine ???
Is it easy to dislodge the connection to the rotary control switch, I had the radio out and back which may be relevant ?
Any clues..
Thanks Guys

It's held by one screw and has an electrical connector on it. If you remove it and turn it over you'll see the thermal fuse you need to replace.

You can find cheap Jeep part from ebay.
Fit Jeep Grand Cherokee ZJ ZG ventilation Resistor Resistance Blower Motor 4720046
20bucks and just needs small work to fit in place.
I have used this now 6 months with no issues. Remember use thermal gel between parts for proper heat transfer.

Finally, the whole AUDI resistor part, incl. cooling element, was replaced by the Jeep resistor 4720046 and it works so far. Problem was, the Jeep resistor itself cannot easily be removed from the aluminium cooling to replace just that original resistor at the AUDI cooling element. Therefore the whole Jeep part was used and fixed somehow at the air duct. At least this worked for me and hopefully will do for the next couple of years.
