Here's a weird one, I don't know if anyone can help.

My front screen blower/demist has gone mental. It appears to be blowing up to a point down in the passengers footwell behind the glove compartment but then stopping/venting there. Occaisionally it is OK but generally not and its bloody dangerous misting up all the time and it's too cold for the air con to help.

If I switch it to recirculate and manually send it to the screen it blows fine. Switch back to auto and then de-mist and it cuts it off.

Is there an electronic valve or anything behind there that could be sticking?

Thanks for any help

I've been doing some research and think I may have found my own answer (DOH! More search in the first place).

I'm going to try changing the pollen filter to see if that helps. Would I be right in thinking its under the glove box?
