> Has anyone heard of this before, what is it - on a '95 405 GLX
It is a loose connection.
Look in the passenger footwell, under the dash. The fat red wire going to
the fan, will be loose at the fan-end. Jiggle it about, and you should be
able to get it working. Mine was fine once I'd duct-taped it inplace.

Thanks Nom, that was exactly it. very easy job - I wish they were all
like that!
Instead of just putting the plug back I cracked some of the plastic
shielding off around the end where it was 'burnt' and brittle then
gently crimped the connecter for a tighter fit before putting it back.
The way the plastic was scorched makes me wonder if it was a fire
hazard??

It probably is a fire hazard :)
