The Heater fan is powered by the 15A 'W' fuse in the Fuse Box. The 'W' fuse is for Wiper/Washer/Heater.

Overview
fuse box heater circuit
Resistor
If the resistor is burnt out, the fan will only operate at High speed. You can replace it or, in a pinch, reconnect the two burnt ends using a small nut & bolt.

Regular Wiring
When IG is on, heater fan motor is always "Hot". But the motor is not grounded until the heater switch is pulled out.
Fan switch Position No. 1 is OFF Fan switch Position No. 2 is low-speed via Resistor Fan switch Position No. 3 is high-speed bypassing Resistor

1972 USA
For 1972 USA models, the heater and switch operated differently. Now the motor fan is directly connected to Ground via B wire, and HOT is switched via a new type switch.
Fan
- B: ground
- ?: High speed
- ?: Low speed
Switch
- LW: 12V from Fuse Box "W" (Wiper/Washer/Heater) via LR wire
- ?: High speed
- ?: Low speed
Illuminated
Some 1200s have illuminated dashboard controls, like the B210.
1973 USA
The wiring is opposite of other 1200s and also includes to lamps for illumination.
When key is at IGN, fan switch is "Hot". Position #1 is OFF. Position #2 connects to the fan resistor (in the fan enclosure) for low-speed mode. Position #3 connects directly to the motor for high-speed operation.
PROBLEM: The wiring diagram does not show how the fan Black wire is earthed.
