Could anyone help I have a swift challenger 520 se nice van but just one small problem with it the  fan on the blow heating stops after a short time like after 15 minutes sometimes. It stops turning it must have something to do with the eletric motor because when I lift off the front and turn the fan with my fingers ( not advisible) it starts up again. This is a carver heater

If its a dc motor (runs off your leisure battery) with a commutator it will have brushes, so try checking they haven't worn down. If they have they will need changing for new ones.

If its an ac motor (runs off the mains) it will be an induction motor that has no brushes, and could be a winding breaking down, or a loose connection.

In either case I would recommend getting it checked out by an electrician.
