[DMCForum] BUMP - No air blows when on vent, heater, or defrost

["Elvis Nocita" <elvisnocita@xxxxxx>]

Derek - even when you had yor car only a day you should be able to tell us
if the fan works or not - when the mode switch is set to heating.

Don't make it more complicated as it is.

If the fan doesn't run - I bet the electrical contacts inside the 
switch may have a problem.

Also - within 4 months you should already have the manual and a 
schematic of the car and with that you could see, that the mode switch 
position 90 is fed by fuse 18. Then the mode switch feeds the fan speed
switch. So if the fan works on A/C, then the problem must be inside the mode
switch.
Simple, isn't it ?

I visited NASA last week, maybe I am on a high-tech trip now ? LOL
