So far, I've found that driving a black car with black vinyl top and seats
with an engine two inches from your kneecaps is more than enough of a
heater. But then I live in LA.
Anyway, this thread got me wondering about what the fan blows if the heater
is off. Is it outside-temperature air? That could be useful on 80-degree
days where for whatever reason I don't want to take the top down (like when
driving to work with a stack of papers in the passenger seat).
So I turned on my fan, and nothing happened. It may just be the switch--it
doesn't really snap into place, it just rocks smoothly back and forth
between the on and off positions. But it could be something more serious.

My turn signals both work, but when I put the hazards on, the left flashes
at double speed and the right doesn't flash. I'm afraid to look into it....
