Howdy again everyone,
Now that I've had this Rover for awhile, there's a few things I cannot seem to figure out. Some trivial, some more important. Any help, links or whatever would be appreciated.
1. The heater blower motor only seems to work on high. I can only find one fuse. Am I missing another location for a fuse? Are there 2 motors.. Or, in short, what's wrong with the thing?
2. The manual seems to say there's a Cd player, I cannot find one. Was that an option?
3. The idle speed sometimes is very high, around 2k. Other times it's real low. When it's low sometimes the alternator belt squeals (it's new). I tighten the belt and that seems to help. Even seems to help the idle speed some (weird).
But I have a hard time believing the belt gets stretched all the time so I'm wondering if the alternator is going out. When it starts squealing I turn all the power stuff off and it seems to stop. BTW, The old belt did this too. I replaced all the belts and none of the others are stretching. I'm wondering if some bearing or clutch on the alt. is going out and when extra load is put on it it's starting to seize?
As always, thanks.. some day I hope to know enough to help others here.
