A procedure used when there is poor ventilation in the car interior and fogging of the windshield, side windows and rear window.
Cars produced before 15.01.99 (production code XC).
If the customer complains of poor ventilation in the car interior and fogging of the windshield, side windows and rear window, a possible cause may be insufficient forced air exhaust in the rear bumper area. This fault should be corrected by installing a modified cover on the forced air exhaust deflectors. For more information, refer to the Heater Housing chapter in this section.
Required parts: Cover for forced air removal.
NOTE: After the described modification, make sure that the customer is fully familiar with the operating principles of the temperature and air distribution switches as described in the "Operating Manual".
A procedure used in the event of fogging or icing of the inside of the windshield, side windows and rear window.
This procedure applies to vehicles produced from 08.98 (production code WP) and the markets of Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland.
NOTE: Before proceeding with this procedure, first perform the "Procedure for Poor Ventilation of the Vehicle Interior and Fogging of the Windshield, Side Windows, and Rear Window.".
If the customer complains of poor ventilation in the car and fogging or icing of the windshield, side windows and rear window, a possible cause in certain weather conditions may be swirling and deposition of snow and dirt between the rear panels, which blocks the deflectors for forced air removal. To eliminate this condition, clean and install mudguards.
Required parts:
- Rear mudguard kit for hatchback variants"
- Rear Mudguard Kit for Notchback Versions"
- Set of rear mudguards for station wagon versions"
NOTE: The complaint should be checked in poor weather conditions, as rising temperatures (e.g. in a workshop) can cause snow and dirt to melt.
If the forced air deflector is clogged, ice, snow and dirt must be removed thoroughly. Mudguards should be installed in front of the rear bumper to prevent this condition from occurring again.
A procedure used when whistling noises occur in the heater housing.
If the customer complains of a whistling noise occurring in position 3 or 4 of the blower fan switch, a possible cause of this condition may be the fits used during assembly, which result in a gap between the heater housing components. This condition should be corrected by applying additional insulation tape to the heater housing to insulate the components. For more information, refer to the Blower Fan Motor chapter in this section.
Required parts: Insulating tape.
