I think my fan blower is gone (AC and Heat not coming through)

[bjornbjorn]

My AC and Heat started to go, whenever I went over a bump it kicked in. It has finally stopped all together though. I believe I need to replace the blower and motor assembly. Is this an easy task? How long should it take?
I checked the fused but their the big square fuses and I am unsure on how to check to see if those are blown.

Any help would be appreciated.

that big square fuse is called a relay . i bet that blew on ya

There's a fuse that feeds the relay.

When you say your heat and ac go... do you mean there is no air coming out the vents or you don't feel the temperature you expect?

Also check the connector that is behind the dash (big rectangle one) that connecets the HVAC controls. I had this same issue and went thru countless dollars and a full summer w/o air thinking it was fuses, relays, and the blower motor only to find out that the whole connection melted inside and the wires were shorting out.

There is only a small amount of air coming out, not enough to cool the car, the air is cold but not blowing through like it used to. Changing the strength of air does nothing

How did you fix your issue? Did you have to get all new wiring?

So.. The blower stays the same speed regardless of the blower selection? Audibly from the blower motor or feeling the air coming from the vents?

Yeah i went to a JY and cut the whole connector out of a donor and spliced it into my own. I still gotta go back and solder it all but i jus did some surgery with liquid and regular electrical tape.
