My 1997 306 GTi-6 has no heating or AC. Nothing on the control unit works except the backlight. Neither the AC or recirculating lights come on when you press the button. You get some warm air through the vents but only when moving at a reasonable speed, so I guess this is just air that is being pushed through, rather than drawn through by the fan.I have checked all the fuses and even replaced the control unit, but this didn't help.
I am now wondering if the relay is the cause. I tried to work out which relay it was but failed. I noticed that I have a gaping whole where most people have a green relay, so is there supposed to be a relay (and holder) here?
The relay, or lack of, is the one being pointed at in this picture (stolen from winno)
If the relay is supposed to be here, how would I go about getting access to the back of the fuse panel and replacing the holder and relay?
