HI All There's a known problem with the multi-tapped resistor that provides heater blower speed control on my Pug 307sw. The resistor pack plugs into the wiring loom, and, under certain conditions or over time, one pin of the loom socket can overheat and the electrical connection is lost.
There's a replacement 'loom-end' available - socket to bare-ended wires
- and the fix is to cut off the original melted socket & splice the new loom-end onto the original wires. Parts are on order -
Trouble is - the original loom is so short that getting my conventional ratchet crimp up behind the dashboard to make a decent crimp is going to be 'challenging'. Same would go for soldering.
I was wondering about the possible alternatives...? Choc-bloc / terminal block seems a bit of a bodge in a vibration-prone automotive environment, but would the Wago 221's be up to the job - I've never used them before?
Thanks Adrian
