As above the fans are blowing and strong but nothing comes out the windscreen vents?how do i get at these?what needs to be done?
Thank you

I presume you tried adjusting the air flow to make it go to the windscreen? It would be the knob to the left of the heater knob...

Does any air come out through any of the other vents? A common enough issue on these is a blocked pollen filter due to not replacing it often enough in some cases never.

Its unlikely to be the filter then but it will do no harm to replace it anyway. Its located under the glovebox behind a black plastic cover(held on with 4 pins). It can be a bit awkward to replace as space is tight and the filter has to be folded to get it to fit.

No just under the glove box. Did you try the heaters with it removed to see if the issue improved?
