Sounds like you need to take the car to an autoelectrician. Unfortunately I don't know of any in your neck of the woods. Could you try the goldenpages?

The only auto-electricians that I know of are in Dublin. Try them if you want - they are excellent, imo. Hamiltons Auto Electrics, they're off the South Circular Road - 01 475 5157.

if your car has a digital controls for the heater/ventilation it could just be that it got reset when the fuse blew, in which case you need to do a "reinitialise" of the controls. That's the way it is for Vauxhall Omegas, just thinking it might be the same for you (Haynes manual had the procedure listed - something about holding some of the buttons in for 5 secs, and the electronics and the mechanical bits all got synchronised)

I'm not to sure the name of the guy, But my dad Has gone to him a few times in Naas to get some electrical work done to his E240. I'm no Naas expert my self but I know where it is to see. I'll see can I get a map up for you show you where. Its right outside the town about 100M down one of the roads on the sallins side.

Hopefully if you manage to find him, He might know whats up. He's a nice bloke.
