HI
My fan heater has stopped working (worked one day, then not the next morning). Didn't smell any burning. Have been told its either the rear stat, switch or motor, but would need to get each part changed to see which one it is! Haven't just won the lottery so would like to know which one its best to start with.
Thanks
