Heater Fan Wiring

May 19, 2014

Heater fan would run all the time, as if it was by-pass at switch.  Removed fuse panel and found relay panel and a hot wire for fan circuit.  Disconnect long red wire at yellow connector and fan stop running.  Going to check radiator fan circuit next.

Next project, to figure out why it is so hard to shift in 1st or 2nd gear.  Going to remove front tire carrier and check out gear selection box.

Seats removed

Remove middle seats because they don't fold down.  Two bolts and slide out of a track. Planning to make wooden bench as a bed extension.


I then spray rust oil everywhere on engine

Built new bench to take nap on

Richard's Bronze Vanagon GL


This is my 1985 Volkswagen Vanagon GL that I brought May 2014.  After spending 3 days of trying to get it running, I drove it home.  Had to replace fuel filter, air filter, and sparkplugs, these parts were hard to find locally.                                                                                                                                                      
Future project plans;
fix front heater wiring, fan runs all the time

Clean bottom of engine and replace exhaust muffler and tailpipe.
Remove middle seats
