    Like many, I’m having issues with my heater fan and trying to diagnose. Fortunately it spins when connected directly to the battery. I understand it could be the control level mechanism or an issue with wiring and potentially with the resistor. what’s the best way to diagnose from here? Any...

New owner of a 1995 Defender 110 and while I'm trying to get it started doing a little digging on what to restore/upgrade. I have read over and over and been told that heating...

    Hey Guys, So I've rebuilt my D110 heater box with a bigger Alisport upgrade, and also trying to upgrade the blower to the one PM136 everyone suggests, but I'm stuck at the plug part. How do you switch out the older input plug of 2-prong to the new blade style plug on the PM136 blower? I feel...

    Hello Friends, New Defender owner here. I'm overhauling my heater and am inclined to change out the ballast resistor due to age (1993). The current one is pulling 2.6 ohms. Is that about right? If so, I can get one in that range from AutoZone for $5. It's green in color and has following...

    The fan speed selector on my 97 is very stiff, it does not move easily. It's been that way since I've owned the truck but it's worked. Recently it's been even more difficult to slide up and down and now the high fan speed only works after fiddling with the lever - moving it side to side a bit...

    Hey all. I'm planing to bypass the heater in my 94 NAS D90 this weekend. In preparation, I'll need some hose couplers, clamps, and maybe an elbow or U-turn hose (for lack of a better term). I thought I'd find easy info on this, but amazingly did not. Question: what size hoses are they? Is...

    I just got a d110 that was rebuilt by the landrovers in the Netherlands. Its been quite an experience (some good, some frustrating) but I'll save those details for a later post. Since I live in AK I had them install a webasto heater. Its an airtop 2000stc for a diesel. It has the dash mounted...

    Ok, I've read most of the posts related to my question, Uncle Douglas was particularly helpful, but I have a question about "amount" of airflow to be expected.. Specifically, If I have the fan on high and the lever completely on heat or completely on "defrost" what amount of the airflow is...

    Hey Guys, My first post here and I am hoping I can be a larger part of this community besides, "help me with my problem" posts. I am going to try and keep this short. I have been dealing with an overheating issue on my 1995 defender with a 300TDI. It all started when the expansion tank split...

    I have an '87 110 with a 2.5TD (RHD). The heat has always been weak but now the blower has stopped. It occasionally comes on for short durations. I checked the fuse and the connections to the dash fan switch. It was working fine, then stopped blowing. Then came back on a day later for about...
