Heater not working

[Andy_S]

Came back from a England vs Wales cruise tonight and my heater doesnt work again on 1,2,3 only 4. I got a heater control card from the scrap yard and was working. Week later its bust

Could be a fault somewhere??

how much to get one brand new? anyone know??

I've changed the title of this topic,

The system may be shorting out somewere but you will need to check your wiring loom to see were. Other than that it could have just been a dodgy card

I thought it was a resistor that goes faulty.
It's a common problem on Nissans.

ive got a replacement from scrap yard for free and its a lot smaller than the last (card is half the size)

anyway tried and worked on all settings. Today (day after) i try and its not working again. I going to go Nissan Dealer and see if they will do me a free checkup on the cars wiring loom. Anyone else have any other ideas?

Could starting the car with the heater on be the problem??

"Nissan" and "Free" never occur in the same sentence.
Its like "I" before "E" except after "C".
