Hello
X Reg 2000 P38
Handbook ! sign checked by a Landrover specialist back in Feb. Controls not sending air to footwell. Blend moter problem diagnosed. Blend moters replaced.
No improvement!
After much more investigation, front contol panel of HEVAC replaced. This worked
For three whole journeys!
Then same fault appeared. No air to footwell, HANDBOOK ! sign up on display.
I actually sat in the car as the Landrover specialist (independent mechanic who used to work for a Landrover main dealer and who was recommended to me by a reliable source) checked the system on a laptop which showed the same fault as previous which was a blend moter fault
So
Blend moters were replaced again as there was a suspicion that the original replacements were faulty
No improvement
Tried different HEVAC front panels that he had from previous repairs which had known faults i.e. would not work on AUTO and something weird happened, the system worked!
Then failed again after a while with the laptop returning the same fault details
He tried another HEVAC front panel and that got rid of the HANDBOOK ! and the air would be directed correctly according to the buttons pressed but the aircon refused to function
The HEVAC front panel was replaced by a brand spanking new one
It worked
For a while
And now is back to the HANDBOOK !
If anyone has any ideas, please help
Thanks

Thanks
Anyone in or near SE Kent with Testbook or Rovocom?

Hello
After a long bad year of P38 ownership during which I have thrown good money after bad at a persistant HEVAC / Blend motor problem see http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=7496&hl
Same fault coming up again and again, blend motors fault
Have just read this fantastic information which makes it all clear to me
http://www.landroveraddict.com/smf/index.php?topic=134951.0
As you will see, it seems that what is needed is not yet another set of blend motors, but for the perfectly good ones in the car to be reset or calibrated
You willl also read that the hardest part is getting someone to do this for you, especially if they are a main dealer which is why I'm asking if there is anyone in this area Kent SE UK who has the equipment and the expertise to help
It would bring a year's nightmare to a happy end I hope
Thanks
Mike
