Question about fan blower (search didn't come up with answers)

[romus]

..none that helpled me anyway.

When i first bought the car the fan was working fine. I have the dual climate control. Every stage/strenght of the fan was functional. Then it stopped working except when turned to the maxiumum. Since then it would surprise me by actually blowing at levels other than max, but that were rare times. Its either 0 or 100%.

Anyone know where to start? It's not a major problem but i'd like to get it fixed. Thanks everyone

the power stage aka sword may be crapping out or a bad connection at the sword, it's possible that the relay inside of the sword can be resoldered (in black plastic housing at end) it's accessed by the glovebox behind the carpet cover that's held on with one + screw

thanks!

Do I have to take out the glovebox or is it just a matter of pulling back some carpet?

also lead you to removing the sword that is on the way. Its a 7, but almost the same.

If the car is RHD I think the sword is accessed from the pedal side.

You have a resistor pack. It's located above the gas pedal and little to the right. Just get a new one and replace it.
