Tallika_Fan Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 The other morning was a PITA as the missus found out when trying to defrost her windscreeen, it seems that the 'windscreen' can't be selected on the dial.it goes to about the 'five-to' position and stops, no further. Can't get to the top so therefore isn't getting a great deal of air toward the windscreen, and when it's cold and frosty that isn't what's wanted.Anyone else had this problem?CheersPete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 The re-circulation button isn't pressed in is it? I know the windscreen setting on the dial doesn't like to be selected when the re-circulation is turned on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallika_Fan Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Interesting advice, i shall check when Ali gets home later. Hopefully it's just this.Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 With a little bit of force it can still be selected though, it just "clicks" the re-circ button off. So if you have tried turning it to the windscreen option with a little bit of force it might not be that mate, its worth checking though. Hopefully you get it sorted, misty windscreens are a nightmare! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully you get it sorted, misty windscreens are a nightmare!This is true, as I found with my mums Lupo.But be careful as I "clicked" the re-circ button off and after that it wouldn't latch in. So the re-circ hasn't worked for the last 2 years, and I don't know how to get the unit out to replace it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallika_Fan Posted January 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Had a look over the weekend, the recirc button wasn't selected and the position selector just wouldn't go any further toward the windscreen.might have to take it apart and have a look.Anyone got an elsa diagram of an exploded view of all components?

Max69vk Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 I had this problem with mine, although it wouldn't move to the 'feet' position. in the end it was just brute force turning the dial that got it round & it's been fine ever since.
