eberthingy fan motor

[eddie.eagles]

My eber heater has not worked since bought the van a couple of months ago. The lights come on but no whirring sound or air coming through, not even cold. I have removed it today and unseized the fan but it looks like the motor is burnt out and completely shot. Does anyone have any ideas where i can get a new one one from. Its a B2L, slung underneathe the van in a metal box. I've took pics of the motor which I have removed but don't know how to get it on here. There is a long number 20 1607 20 02 00 and 12V on a sticker on it. It might also be worth me getting a new glow plug and the 2 huge plasic tubes replaced at the same time. I am pretty sure the hrest of its ok, its a solid old lump.

Any help would be greatly appreciated......

If the air fan motor's burnt out (and they do) then it's an expensive repair.

I modded mine with a cordless drill motor
mine was a BL2
hope this helps

got a couple of BL2s and BL6s in the lockup, if anyone can make them work....or strip them for bits I guess.....fans work on the BL2s when last checked
I just haven't had the time to fanny about with them

Yep, its def the blower motor it's melted on the plastic bits and metal things hanging out of it! All it needs (I hope is a new motor) at least then i will know what else dooesn't work on it! Don't fancy trying to adapt it and i haven't got an old 12V drill!!

Aidan, having had a nightmare stripping this one not sure I want to attempt it again! although, if I can't find just the motor.........I'll PM you or give you a tinkle later today.

A new D1L air motor from Espar was £240 a couple of years ago

£240!!!! It's just a 12v motor!!! Hmmm, well a new one is looking out of the question then.....

its not just a 12v motor tho..... thats the point

[eddie.eagles]

what is it then? It has 2 wires, turns a fan....am I being thick!!

[eddie.eagles]

how can i get a pic on here..will put it up...

[Mocki]

yeah, ok, its a fan motor, but its a fan motor that can handle the variable rpm and variable temps for long periods.

i split one of the bl2s when last fannying with it so it will come apart pretty easily, but I didn't try and remove motor or anything

Aidan made a post above - it would be worth contacting him I would have thought rather than an expensive dealer.

[eddie.eagles]

pm'd Aidan, will call him in a mo...
