FWIW the '2 speed' heater fan consists of a single-speed motor with a dropper resistor inside the heater unit casing. For the first speed the current goes via the resistor to the motor, for the second speed the resistor is bypassed. The resistor is in the air flow for cooling (common in more modern cars). The Parts Catalogue indicates the motor was changed for *all* cars when the V8 was introduced in Dec 72, certainly by that time they are polarity sensitive. PaulH. ----- Original Message ----- > ... MGB 1975-1980 heater motor has three wires (possibly two speed?). |
