Should have tried squirting the WD40 into the air connections so it can get to the internals. I pretty much solved petrol fumes in the boot by fitting a better seal. Got it in the right place by...

My Mantara has no heater control in it at all, there is a dash switch that purports to boost the heat and other than that regulation is by opening and closing the air vents. Is that the way yours was,...

Pleased to hear you have resolved the heater problem. I must try this as mine has died permanently "off" so heat no heat to warm your toes on cold days except that transmitted through floor from the...

Thanks for boot seal advice Jack. Do you think the fumes drop down into the boot after venting through the filler cap - I did wonder if it was possible to go the carbon canister and purge valve linked...

Hi again,I have scanned some graphics and uploaded to My Images under "Heater".I hope they are useful.

Mike, if your heater has stopped in the off position then the problem is likely the water valve and not the air valve - the vacuum is to make the water valve divert hot water away from the internal...

I was under the impression from reading my handbook..... that if I leave the switch on ( red light on) then the heater is off. ......... before I visit confused .com what exactly does this switch do...

Hello Ian,As fitted - the switch when "up" switches the vacuum off and the heater has the hot water flowing through it. Switch the rocker switch "down" and the solenoid operates the water valve and...

The red light should be for the recirculated air from the passenger footwell - also vacuum driven. The Blue light should be for the interior heater.

Thanks that is helpfull, my vents also seam to produce hot air as well no matter what the setup, but they definitely produce less with the red light on. I'll take a good look at your modification and...

Red light ? Blue light ? I`ve got no lights on my fan or heater switches at all . Got no bloody heat either !! But it is the norm on rocker switch dash boards that switch "off" is heat "on" and...

Hi Mike, Love vacuun = F*** All - - - - - brilliant.When I was trying to find the source of the desired "no heat", I established that the solenoid was reciving 12V by the usual method - that was...

Had originally the same issue, just squirted some WD40 into the vacuum pipe in the top of the heater valve and eventually it freed up. Regarding the switches, my handbook shows four different switch...
