Hi, I've just inherited a 2003 Micra Tempest from a relative. I'm hoping someone can help me with a couple of problems I have found. I am assuming this is a K11 model please correct me if I'm wrong. the car has only done 67000 miles so I am hoping to to tidy it up and move it on.

The first problem is with the fan blower switch that only works on no. 4. I realise this is a problem with the resistor which needs replacing. Where is it and how do I get to it?

The second problem is with the air distribution control knob which will not send air to the screen, only to the face vents. Is there some sort of mechanical linkage controlled by this knob or is it likely some ducting has come adrift.

Thanking you all in advance

Hi...welcome to the Club

yes at that age it should be a K11 model.
A resistor pack will be near to or even bolted to the heater blower motor and while you're under the dash you can look to see if any linkage has dropped off

Let us know how you have got on with it

Hi everybody just in the process of buying 2022 Qashqai, any tips to ask at the sale

Check maintenance and service history and there would be signs of any abuse with wear and tear in the interior - I always believe it is has been allowed to be grubby inside then they don't tend to look after the vehicle maintenance
