How to change the direction of the airflow in a Nissan Vivaro.

Model: Vauxhall Vivaro MK 2 - Years 2014-2019
Part: Air vents

In this video, we can see how to fix the issue with the airflow that cannot be controlled by the air conditioning knobs in a Nissan Vivaro. Naturally, the same system applies to the Renault Trafic and the Nissan Primastar as well. First, we need to remove the lower dashboard cover, which also houses the gear lever. This will allow us to take off the air conditioning control panel, from which we will remove the cable that controls the airflow. Let's take it out and clean it thoroughly with WD-40, which will properly lubricate it. Then, we will put it back in place and check its functionality. Finally, we will close the panel and then the cover, and we're all set.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
