In the past, the Ford Transit has had some problems with its heater. Specifically, the Connect model has experienced issues such as malfunctioning heater blower motors, faulty thermostats, and defective motor resistors. A common reason for heater problems in the Transit is a malfunctioning blower motor due to the vehicle's size and design. When this occurs, the motor will need to be replaced. The Transit's thermostat has also had issues, with many users reporting unexpected failures. Additionally, the motor blower resistor, which regulates fan speed, has been known to fail in several Transits, leading to various heater problems.
Although there could be several reasons why the heater in your Ford Transit Connect isn't functioning, the top three most frequent causes include a faulty heater blower motor, issues with the thermostat, or a malfunctioning heater blower motor resistor.
