Hi Alex.
Make sure you have the A/C all turned off, put the key into the ignition and turn the key to II without starting the car.
Then press the demist button once pressed go to the front of the car and look through the front grill to see if the fan is running continually, if not then most likely on your reg it will be the silver resistor that is not working.
If no silver resistor is showing you may have a four wire 3 speed fan fitted which would mean the low speed brushes have failed in the motor.
On your reg usually the fan is a two wire 2 speed fan with a silver resistor at about 2.00 O'clock which can be seen through the front grill and behind the fan blades, do the test and report back to us.
On my car here you can see i have a gold resistor which replaces the silver one so the fan works again, most of the time.
