Vauxhall Astra blower fan has stopped working completely
The heater fan on my Vauxhall Astra doesn't work. It used to work only in setting four, and then stopped working altogether. Replaced the resistor pack but it still isn't working.

Are you trying to set fire to your car and burn your family to death? Haven't you heard of Vauxhall Zafira fires? When a fuse fails or a resistor separates it's because there is a failure. In your case the heater motor has failed.First job: replace the heater motor.
