Hi

I have just bought a 1997 bmw 740 (replacing my 728 which I had great service from over the last 5 years). New Car seems to be very good, but a tiny problem is that the from demister or blower, needed to clear a misted windscreen doesn't work, and it's a huge problem on damp mornings. My last car had a fantastic version, which cleared the screen in a few seconds. can anyone please advise as to which fuse would be worth looking at? Or any other advice would be most welcome. Just to say the push switch on the dash has a light on, but there is no blast of air. I am hoping its a fuse!

Cheers

Hey Chas, welcome welcome mate

Wonderful Wonderful choice of motor. May indeed be electrical/control problem from the switches which if similar to my E38, were digital from the centre console.

Does all the other blowers work?

CHECK ALL THE FUSES! :D Fuse trays in the boot and engine bay

As Daz said could just be a fuse hopefully, not sure if the 7 series has similar issues as the 5 series like the fsr (final stage resistor) which can affect the heater system.
