MkII Interior Fan grounds

[pbureau@attbi.com (ATS - Patrick Bureau)]

Pop the rain tray, remove the plastic bowl (black big thing in rain tray)
and check your connection there, you will be also astonished at the amount
of crap that gets behind the blower motor and all around the brushes. The
resistor could be fried, but doubtfull, as speed 4 (or 3 if no ac) would
still run.

Mine could not run at more than 3-4 speeds, I had all sorts of crap that had
been "sucked" in by the fresh air entry (bugs, leaves, pine needles etc etc)
and the motor is not closed in, it basically covered by the plastic bowl and
exposed to the outside elements which I always though was a fairly poor and
cheap damn way of building this blower assembly.

yeah I am done mummbling.

Subject: MkII Interior Fan grounds
I want to call upon your collective wisdom when it pertains to the MkII
cars.  I have a 1985 8V car that has a problem with the interior blower
motor; the fan does not blow but I can hear some sort of clicking coming
from around the fuse box when I rotate the fan switch.  The fuse is fine and
I haven't gotten to the fan itself and I have heard of some sort of ground
to check around the fuse box that might be causing it not to work?
