Absolutely spot on. To the point, no fluff and accurate - just what I needed and saved me from trying to access the back of the switch. Many thanks Jon
So easy to follow video got the part for £14 Amazon and 5 minutes to do thanks Vauxhall Leicester wanted 157.70 with vat to do it and £40 plus vat to diagnose it with computer .
Wonderful stuff! This was exactly the issue I was experiencing! Roughly a tenner and a little squeeze into the foot well for 25 minutes and I've now got heating just in time for winter! Diamond! Thank you!
Perfect. My wifes new car is a 1.2 litre Energy. Has just this problem and now I know exactly how to fix it, Most certainly deserves a like and subscription.
Thanks for this, very helpful,my daughters Corsa D had the same problem,removed the resistor and one of the pins was corroded slightly,cleaned it up and it worked fine again.
Cheers chap just fixed mine after watching this ...i pulled the plug out and pushed it back in and it now works spot on... ..thanks again ill remember this fix
Hi Anton, I really congratulate you for the clarity with which you explained everything....in particular, the technique with which you extracted the resistor from its housing...really GOLD advises for me as I'm just a neophyte! !! Thanks again
Great video. Unfortunately this was a long job for me due to various problems with the connector plug but I eventually got it solved. Without this video I wouldn’t even know where to start. Big thanks!!!
Perfect. I have just sorted my father in laws heater using your video, thanks. FYI, his bolt was slightly bigger than 5mm so used my pals 7/32 spanner and all sorted, so thanks very much for posting.
Yes - what UA-cam tutorials should be like! But can confirm Simon Davey's experience. I just swapped out on a 2012 Corsa SE 1.4 and it had 5.5mm nut (although replacement-part bolt/screw was 5mm) ... initial frustration followed by some relief on finding a 5.5mm socket knocking around the house ... @@aaanton11
Thank you Anton! The video was spot on mate! Very clear, short and precise 👍 I've managed to replace the heat resistor and heaters are working perfectly fine.. Muchly appreciated!
Had the same issue. Ordered a new one off amazon along with a 5.5mm socket. 5 min job all good. Thanks alot for the heads up. The only issue i had is that one of theblocating lugs was off so had to carefully grind it off. Popped in a treat.
thanks very useful information - just happend on mine wondering if this is common fault on corsas. never heard of it happening on other cars. thanks for posting
Thanks for video. Got resistor off Internet for 12 quid including P&p and managed to fit myself. Only fiddly bit was getting the screw in and out. Now the heater works as normal. Saved me quite a bit of money as garages quoted between £50-£80 to replace it. If you have the same problem with your Corsa, I would recommend you follow this video and try do it yourself. If I can do it, anyone can.
Brought the new part from Amazon. Unplugged the old one. Realised I don't have the right tool to remove the old one. Plugged back into the old one. It's now all working again 🤣 I've wasted £9.99. Great video though keep up the good work.
The connector plug will be melted pull it off and check it again you might need to replace the plug there is also a link for that in the description Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
I had same problem and when I unplugged and plugged the wiring into the resistor it sorted itself. Just to say try that first before full resistor replacement
My corsa van heater played up this morning only speed 4 working! A big Thankyou for the video as this is my job this week saves me booking it into a garage Cheers fella
Great video! Just followed this and my blowers are working perfect! Wish I had seen this video a year and a half ago when they first stopped working properly!
Thank you very much for this tutorial, it helped me soo much. I recommand this video to everyone who has this problem, thanks again!!! Liked subscribed.
It worked a treat and I now have a fully functioning fan. Cause was a dirty connector pin with verdigris on it. Measured resistance taps all good measured thermal fuse and that was 0 ohms. Cleaned pin and rubbed vasseline on the pins- reassembled tested okay. Thank you so much!!
Watched this video, done the job in 10 minutes, (im 6' 2'') note to self take the seat out first next time, thank you aaanton11, thank you very much, love my corsa again !!!!
If you have a left-hand drive car (i.e. Opel) then the resistance must be pushed to the right when you take it out. It's a really good video. The bolt that holds the resistor is actually a 5.5 mm, completely idiotic, but I got it out with a spanner and a pair of pliers as I only have keys in whole mm. Thanks for the video mate.
You will either need a new connection plug or a new motor the plug is the more common one links are in the description Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
thanks saved me a few bob on garage fees. part cost £5.49 on ebay . the tip about the two awkward plastic tangs (not mentioned in Haynes Corsa D manual) was useful in removing/refitting
Good video but when replacing it do bear in mind the mileage the vehicle might have done. I'm at 150K and I'd already replaced the resister bank quite some time ago and when the fan would only run on 4, thought I know exactly what it is (had the same on a Citroen). Swapped it out but while driving the 5 miles into town, I started to get a nice burning smell into the car. I switched the fan off! I have just taken out the fan and it runs reasonably well on pos. 4 but doesn't turn at all on pos. 1 and not much better on 2. And spinning the fan I'm lucky to get one revolution. Bearings are shot. So yes, you might get away with replacing these resisters (its an easy fix) but it isn't always the problem. Btw compared to the Citroen replacing it on the Corsa is a walk in the park.
Thanks for this video 👌 Any ideas why the corsa d is so misty and condensates all the time in winter months ?? I did have a wet carpet from a leaking rear screen wash but sorted that in the summer and now it’s bad AGIAN thanks … is it just poorly insulated maybe
Did the replacement one double up on the power pins ? As normally it only has 2 power wires, the later ones have 4 pins, 2 live and 2 negative so need to also change to an new plug and add the extra 2 wires in
hi could you tell why i would have low pressure coming through the vents of my Corsa d blower seems to be working fine on all 4 setting can here it but nearly no air ? thanks for these videos
Question.......was the car on the floor or up on a ramp? Almost breaking my back trying to squeeze the 2 clips together to remove the old resistor. Seems to be major ag being left handed.
Great video! I've just ordered my new resistor as I have the same fault. Do you know if the bad resistor will cause the car and spanner light to come on? I've ran a obd check and no codes but my light is on so I'm wondering if it's down to this?.
Absolutely spot on. To the point, no fluff and accurate - just what I needed and saved me from trying to access the back of the switch.
Many thanks

Not normally, the spanner light will be another fault, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
