Citroen Dispatch Blower fan - NeilT

Can anyone advise on this issue?

My 2001 Dispatch van (AKA Scudo / Expert) has a blower fan with a mind of its own. When I first got the van it did work, but toook some playing with the speed control knob, and sometimes made a pretty anoying wining noise.

Recently it gave up for about 2 weeks, then worked again for a day. Now it doesn't work again. I removed the control facia and cleaned the contacts, I also tried to bypass the PCB to see if it was a switch issue or a fan issue, but without a manual, its not easy to see which contact to use.

Is this a common issue on these vans, and what is the likely cause? there appears to be a few blower fan issues on the net regarding the car versions (i.e, Synergie, 806 etc), and blower fans for sale, but I dont want to start taking the dash apart if there is an easy test.

Cheers.....
