Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    As far as I can remember the first one is for a car with digital display and AC - I think after about 2006 .
    The second one was used in the pre 2006 - these had had a rotary control for the blower and sounds like what you have ; this was how they usually failed also - first speeds 1,2,3 (as they were fed through the resistor pack) and eventually no 4 failed also .
    This was the case with the Renault Grand Scenic so I would imagine the Megane etc would be similar .
    Your best option would be to ask a dealer - they should be able to tell you which one is fitted from the reg .
    Hope this helps :)

    The digital climate control vs manual aircon is a spec difference rather than age.

    You should take the old one out and look at the loom too, not sure about Renaults but Peugeots have a habit of melting and burning the connector where the resistor plugs in. If the connector is burned then it gets messy. I had to buy a new resistor and then cut the connector off the loom and then solder the 5 wires directly to the pins on the resistor. It was a pig but was better than replacing the entire loom.
