Hi guys maybe you can help please.
Here in the islands the company I work for has a Isuzu 2.5 diesel. Suddenly the fan control in the cabin ( for aircon and normal air circulation) stopped working on level 1, 2 and 3. Only 4 works and that is full speed. I thought the fan motor bight have a tight bearing or a resistor of sorts but not so. I checked the switch selector but could not find any fault. The stealers in RSA said I had to buy a complete dash control system. This the hotel wanted to do as it is used by one of the directors. I now put in a complete new unit and the result is still the same ? Any ideas ? I am stumped ( which is not hard to do). and yes before any wise ones point out that this is a Hilux forum I accept it but I hope you can forgive my transgresssion. thanks for any advice.

Re: advice
Check if the fan motor has a resistor to be able to reduce the speeds. The resistor is most likely burnt out from age causing the fan to work only on full speed.

Re: advice
Look for the fan speed resistor behind the glovebox, looks like a credit card, replace resistor and your problem should be sorted.
