[QUOTE="98twister, post: 222925, member: 2794"] I have just fixed ours, so thought I would share the info. The little 'blob' on the resistor card is solder. I believe that this is designed to melt in the event of the blower motor drawing too much current. It is acting as a fuse. What appears to happen is that the card gets damp and the joint to the sodler blob corrodes and looses contact. Scrape about 5mm either side of the blob with a knife to expose the copper track. Put plenty of solder on one side. Do the same on the other side and keep adding solder until the 2 side join together. I don't think that this will cause any problems, as the joint is still solder which can melt. However, follow these instructions at your own risk. It is probably a good idea to remove and check the blower motor is not stiff. There is a black plastic cap on one end of the motor. Remove this and lubricate with a little oil. Just 2 or 3 drops. I used vegetable (cooking) oil which has no smell. [/QUOTE]
