Heater fan switch on my Vauxhall Vectra only works on no 4 setting. ?

Can anyone suggest what the problem is and how to fix it? Vauxhall Vectra 2.0 DTI 2002. There seems to be a clicking noise from somewhere to the left of the dash when the booster is switched on. It is not working on 1, 2 and 3 settings but comes on on no 4. Have taken out the switch and no apparent problems can be seen.

Anyone know the Vauxhall part number for that small blue relay?

If you change the resistor and it still only works on number 4 then it is the small blue relay behind the glovebox on the left

buy a resistor from scrap yard for a pound put it in and enjoy heat from four settings

i have the same problem with my 2002 2.0 dti vectra, but after removing the resistor, i just turned on the fan and surprisingly it still worked on 4 without the resistor?????????

Hi, if you type into Ebay Vectra fan Repair you will find a company who do it for £10.00,. That's what I am going to do!

I have the exact same problem on my 2003 vectra sri? I didn't look at the switch but did give it a swift jab of the fist and that didn't solve it?? any more ideas?

Usually the resistor block burnt out when this happens. You'll need to replace it with a new one.
