evening all
i know this strictly doesn't belong on this site, but as i used to be a fully signed up member i figured it was as good a place as any to ask the questions, and hopefully someone can help;
i've got an r reg astra 5 door, 1.6 8v shopping wagon, tip runner  any way the heaters dont seem to work at all. if i try to select any of the 3 dials on the centre console, heat / cool, fan speed and fan location absoloutly nothing happens. now i know the rest of the cooling works ie radiator and fan etc so i'm wondering wther its a problem with a relay or a componet or fuse? also the heated rear window doesn't work - is this all pointing to one relay???
if anyone has any suggestions and more importantly the best places to start fault finding it would be greatly appreciated, as its starting to get cold!
also the radio wont save the settings, i'm guessing a need a constant feed, if anyone has any suggestions for this it would also be most welcome?
