So I'm fairly new to the Rover world and have spent alot of time just getting my recently purchased '90 on the road, but now I'm in the mountains for the winter and looking to maximize my heating, windsheild wash, and defrost abilities out of pur and vital necessity.
I've read that no heat will come from the fascia vents as this is per design (as ridiculous as I think this is) but my defrost vents on top of the dash only seem to pump heat when I am on the road driving and at decent speeds. I'm not sure if this in an indication of a coolant/thermostat problem or if it is in the actual blower motor itself. Air flows freely from the fascia vents, but that does me no good on a 0F degree morning in the Rockies. After 10 miles of driving the truck is warm enough to sit in comfortabley, but I'm hoping to be able to start, it let the heat crank, and be ready to drive as soon as I open the door in the morning.
Another problem is that I have nothing coming from my wiper wash system. I'm really only concerned about the front because, as I mentioned earlier, I need it out of necessity. Is there a fuse for this, is it possible that the line may be plugged, or the pump motor itself may be bad? Any way to check these possible faults in some sort of logical sequence?
Looking forward to any sort of tips or suggestions whatsoever. Thanks alot guys!
