Heater Blowing Hot When Set To Cold

[mikeohope]

Hi all,

 

First post for a while.

 

Has anybody else had this problem. Just came back from a spin in my MKII 1.9tdi and during the drive the ventilation was blowing very hot air even though the dial was set to cold. Fiddling with the dial ultimately re set it but it seemed very odd to me.

 

I don't know what happens behind the dials and unless I start pulling it apart I am unlikley to find out.

 

Has anyone any ideas how this could happen please?

I recently had a similar problem but mine stayed cold and the air direction dial would not work, after removing the whole unit and disconnecting and reconnecting the plugs on the back all seems fine.
