S40 2001 A/C fan (blower?) not working

Post by vortex118 »

While at a gas station, I turned off the car, filled up, turned the car back on, and my A/C fan no longer turns on. I've flipped all the knobs, fan speed, direction, temperature, etc. The fan just doesn't blow.

If I leave it on outside air (not recirculated) and drive on the highway, I get the slight blow of air through the A/C vents and the air comes in cool, so the A/C itself (compressor, I think) seems to be working. However, fan speed is not working, nothing seems to be turning on.

I checked the blower fuse and any fuse that said it was related to the A/C, they were all fine.

Any ideas about what it might be and how I might fix it? I'm on a budget so I would rather not take it in if I didn't have to.

30864189 Is the part number that should be the first place you try. It is the blower motor transistor, or power stage. These are very common and we have them in stock for about $62 bucks. Free shipping if you mention MVS.
