Robert,

I can't really help with any of those things - but congrats on owning an
88 model Vanagon. I've got two. I like them both, and even though one
doesn't run, I expect it o eventually.

Regards the heater - this is the front fan and not the rear fan? Is that
correct?

I haven't had a fan problem, but check first the fuse, then wiring. I
think you should be able to wire the fan direct - bypassing the se\witch
- just as a test to see if the fan stil works. You may have a loose wire. .

Tood luck.
