Ok, I've read the book on this.. done it by the book.. but my heater fan is turning the opposite direction.. do I just switch the wires?
 
now the heater motor is turning reverse in either pos or neg ground! what did I do? I have no idea how to fix this one..
 
yes, found the problem just now.. embarrassing..on reassembly I put the air duct in the closed position.. so when I turned the fan on it was like hitting the wall and coming back out the front of the fan..thought it was in reverse.. You have to be on top of so many things working on these cars.. Thx

Well, ALL my problems are embarrassing. :cooler:
 
My heat duct air diverter was bassackwards to the fan switch position when I bought my BE. It's a head scratcher to figure it out the first time. It's very easy to put together wrong, old Brit logic at its best there. :wall:
