Hi,
First post and yet another one related to the mundane subject of the cabin Climate control.
I basically have no heat at all.
Temp reads 90.
Fans all flow and change direction according to the relevant button press.
Garage has checked it and said the fault code 710 is coming up that the heater flap positioning motor (v107) - blocked or no voltage
Also fault codes 727 and 601 potentiometer in positioning motor for defrost flap and central flap - open or short to plus (intermittent).
garage recommends that we start by changing the heater flap motor - part no: 6Q0 907 511 A https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/232621787938?ViewItem=&item=232621787938
I'm hopeful it might just be this but also wondering if I should change the other motors too.
I am also not convinced that there climate control module itself is working correctly.
Reason I say this is because if I switch it to manual then often, if I change just the temp side, it also changes the fan speed after a few seconds or a bit longer. This would be expected if it was on Auto but not on manual where I would expect the change in temp to be independent of the fan speed?
Any thought or advice gratefully received.
