Looking for a bit of help here ...
I have a 206 1.1 not had it it long as i have recently passed my test i have made a few mods debadged alloys spoiler and the lights and a few other mechanical things ...Anyway woke up 1 morn was very bitter started the car and the heaters werent working drove around a bit and then they came on so that was fine !! next day same again but this time they havent came back on and its notthe time of year for this to happen lol so i took the glove box out removed the blower cleaned it up a bit and wired it to a battery pack and the blower works fine !! Took the resistor out as i heard its most probably this and replaced it with brand new 1 today and they still arent working

Is the temp of the vehicle okay when the blower is blowing cold?
As it sounds more like a matrix than anything mate

As in the connections on the blower and resistor?
As the resistor controls what voltage the fan gets, eg how fast it spins
But if it doesnt work at all on any setting than i would look towards the blower more

It could be, but from what i have seen its more common for the connections to melt on the heater blower

I have had this issue two or three years ago. I have a bad connection on the wiring loom. put your head in the passenger footwell and look up inside the dash. You will see a white rectangular plug. Give the wire a good wiggle and see if it comes on. Mine did and I simply gaffa taped it up into a position that works. Not ideal but it has lasted since so can't complain. Never bothered to replace it as its got 3 or 4 plugs on the loom and its hard to access them.
