Functioning Heater for RWC

I've had the dash out for months now waiting for a part to fix the heater for roadworthy.

But I'm having no luck in getting the part and would really like to have a car again.

Since summer is coming up, I can live with out a heater, and will change it next year if the part turns up in between.

Is the heater a deal breaker for many rwc places?

 

with over 20 cars I've owned never has any RWC inspection looked/checked the heater .

iv never had my heaters checked but this isnt the fist time iv heard of this on this forum...

 

Post up the part you require and someone may be able to help out.

 

I don't believe a heater is a requirement for RWC, but a functioning demister vent/blower/ducts is required if OEM fitted.

 

thanks guys.

I was told that it was the demister, but that it also had to be able to blow hot air. I'll be putting the dash back in this week!

The part I'm after is the mode door motor, sent a few pms to people wrecking their cars and heard nothing back, and it's the only thing keeping it off the road right now, so it's a little frustrating

 

Heater for demister was needed for my RWC in victoria.
