What this video covers:

Fan not working at all — check the fuse first
Fan works on 4 but not 1, 2 or 3 — it is the resistor (thermostat)
Fan seized or slow — how to clean and regrease the bearings
How to check for power at the fan connector with a voltmeter
Full dashboard panel removal to access the fan and resistor
How to remove, dismantle, clean and refit the fan motor
How to avoid the cable tapping noise when refitting

In this video the fix cost zero. A bit of WD40 and a vacuum. The fan runs quietly and the van is back on the road.

⚠️ Important: if your fan works on 4 but not on 1, 2 or 3, you need the resistor — not the fan. Both are accessible once the lower dashboard panel is removed.
