Brand new 2-speed fresh air blower motor for Volkswagen Beetle models fitted with the factory fresh air ventilation system.

This replacement fresh air blower motor is designed to restore proper airflow through the Beetle`s ventilation system, improving cabin comfort and windscreen demisting performance. Featuring two-speed operation, it provides the correct airflow control as originally fitted by Volkswagen.

The blower motor was factory-installed on 1303S Super Beetle models and was also available as an optional extra on certain European-market standard Beetles produced after 1972. It mounts within the fresh air box and draws outside air into the vehicle, helping to improve ventilation and reduce window misting during colder or damp weather.

Over time, original blower motors can become noisy, seize, operate intermittently or stop working altogether due to worn bearings, corrosion or electrical faults. Replacing a failed motor restores the performance of the fresh air system and returns the ventilation controls to proper operation.

Although originally fitted to 1303S models, this blower motor can also be installed on other 1303 Beetles where a fresh air blower system is fitted.

This Two-Speed Electric Fan Switch is an essential component found on 1200L and Super Beetles, including 1303 models. Previously, sourcing a high-quality replacement switch has been a challenge, often leading customers to opt for second-hand units. But now, we are pleased to offer a good quality reproduction switch that rivals the original in performance and durability. This switch is prone to wear over time due to frequent use, and when broken, it is crucial to replace it to ensure the continued functionality of the fan and demisting system.

Key Features:

• Two-Speed Functionality with Off Position: The switch offers two speed settings for the electric fan, along with an off position, giving you control over air flow and demisting options.
• Reproduction with Excellent Quality: After years of relying on second-hand parts, we now supply this high-quality reproduction switch that meets or exceeds the original specifications.
• Versatile Use: While originally used for the optional M121 electric fan to enhance demisting and provide fresh air, this switch is also suitable for various heater conversions from modern vehicles.
• Fits Padded or Metal Dash Models: This switch includes a locking nut and knob for metal dash Beetles. For padded dash models or 1303 Beetles, you will need knob 113959513A.

Applications:

• VW 1200L Beetle
• VW Super Beetle
• VW 1303 Beetle: This switch was fitted as standard on 1303 models, but also works with flat screen models as an optional upgrade (M121).

Quality:

Why Choose This Two-Speed Fan Switch?

2. Quality Reproduction: Previously hard to find in decent quality, this switch now offers a reliable alternative to used parts. The reproduction switch has been manufactured to high standards, offering long-lasting durability.

Why Replacing a Broken Switch is Important:

A faulty or broken fan switch can render your electric fan useless, leading to poor airflow, ineffective demisting, and a less comfortable driving experience. Replacing the switch ensures that your Beetle’s fresh air and demisting system continues to work effectively, providing better visibility and comfort, especially in damp or cold weather conditions.

Benefits of Installing a New Fan Switch:

• Restores Full Fan Functionality: Ensures your electric fan operates at both speeds and can be switched off when not in use.
• Enhances Demisting Efficiency: Proper fan operation helps clear the windshield quickly, improving visibility during adverse weather conditions.
• Easy to Fit: The switch is easy to install, making it a simple but effective upgrade for your VW Beetle.
• Durable Reproduction: Made from high-quality materials, this switch is built to withstand frequent use and last longer than many second-hand units.
