My aircon on my 2008 2 litre tdci tit xwas working fine, nice and cool, suddenly it has stopped blowing cold air. The compressor and fan is is kicking in, but not cooling. I did the on board diagnostics, and it comes up with fault code 9086, fault in circuit of actuator for air distribution flap...

Yep - you read it right:). I want to go from the push-button heater controls to the manual dials - I'm sick of having to keep pressing buttons twenty-odd times to get the temperature where I want it, and the motor flap noise after I park up is infuriating. Is this easy to do? Many thanks, M.

Moved from general discussion as requested by mod. Hi all. Bought my Mondeo last July and all was well untill the weather got really cold. I do prefer the cold ( 2nd vehicle 1972 S3 Landrover with no windows). With the heating on 22' the output from the vents is 69'. This is maintained for about...

Hello guys, I'm just looking for a bit of adive on a heater valve issue I have. I realise I'm probably being a bit thick, but I'm a bit of an amateur with cars. I have a KA 2003 (Luxury) and recently fitted a new battery. Now I'm trying to replace my broken heater valve. Problem is, I have no...

Hi, Just recently purchased a 2005 2.2 ST TDCI in really nice condition. The heater control panel LCD is working intermittently, either on or flashing making out what it says impossible. I can live with it if need be, but would prefer to replace it with a second hand unit that works correctly...

Hi all. Just driven a circa 150 run and noticed that when the engine is under load, be it steep hill or hard acceleration, the heater stops blowing hot and the temp gauge moves down half the gauge. No cream under the oil cap when I set off - ill check again when the engines cooled down. Is it...

I have a 2007 S-Max Titanium TDCi and the heater doesn't want to work below 60mph. Around town and on B-roads it blows out cold air but as soon as I'm on an A-road or a motorway and doing 60-70mph it heats up. Any ideas what is wrong with it? The temperature needle goes to halfway so does that...

Hi Lately when I turn on the ignition heater and wait for a few seconds, the car doesn't start, just gives that loud whirr, that it would give if you turned the ignition too quickly. Now it sometimes, take over a minute after I turn the ignition halfway before the car will start. I mentioned it...

Good Morning Guys, I am looking into the posibility of retrofitting rear heated seats into my '06 ST TDCi, this is the only factory fit option my car does not have and i would quite like to fit them. I have the rear seat entertainment package so i plan on mounting the switches in the fold down...

Hi all, I hope you can help! I drive a 2002 Ford Ka, and let's just say it's showing it's age! This summer the heater went and constantly blew hot air despite dial position, I changed the Heater Control Valve and the problem was fixed. But now I suspect that the internal control panel isn't...

Have taken off two of the motors to check the flaps are working correctly, after lack of heating. Although I noted the position of the motors, I heard the flaps move as I was removing them. Does anyone know if it is critical the flaps are in the correct position when refitting the motors? Or do...

Can anyone suggest a cause/cure of a problem I'm having with the rear screen heater indicator light on my 2006 Ka. The indicator light keeps flickering on and off. Pressing the button makes no difference and I've tried removing the appropriate fuse and it still flickers on and off! Anyone any...

Hi there my 2006 mondeo started playing up a couple of months ago. Whenever I come to a stop the heater starts to blow cold air, not instantly but it goes cold within about 5-10 seconds. It seems like there is a fan not working? As if the 'heat' needs the 'push' of the outside air to get in the...
