Weird thing happened to me today. I got in my car after work, turned on the AC (Florida) and nothing happened. No air, no sounds, nothing. I stopped to get gas and when I started the car the air was back on as if nothing ever happened??

Do you think the blower is starting to go? I also thought about the transistor, but figured if that went the air would not start blowing again.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Needs a blower motor.

When it stops again, knock on it and see if it starts working. Under the glovebox. If it starts working, it needs a blower.

Those blowers have been known to be intermittent.
The part # for them has been changed.

If/when it stops again, lower the glovebox and remove the cabin filter. You will be able to see the round white fan inside, with car on and blower at minimum speed reach in and spin the blades and see if it starts running.

Replacement is pretty simple.

Do you guys have a favorite link on replacing it?

Stopped again today, but started before I could get the filter out. I'll mess with in more this weekend.

Crawl under the dash with a light and look for yourself. It's only 3 screws.



When it quits, just have the passenger kick the bottom of the dash.
When I get a dead one, that's all the diagnosis I need to do (well, I hit it with my hand). If the jolt makes it run, the motor is toast.

Yep, just replace the blower motor

Take the black cover off.
Press the release on the 2 pin connector and remove.
Remove 3 screws.

My wife got in the car and the AC was not blowing at all. A few minutes later, it started blowing air, but not cold air. Parked to do some shopping, got back in the car and when she turned it on cold air was blowing out.
Would the malfunctioning blower cause the cold air issue as well?

Yes. The AC compressor is disabled if the interior fan does not run. You may need to cycle the key off and on to re-enable the compressor once the fan runs.

Why haven't you fixed it yet?
It's only a 10 minute job.
LOL

We bought an extended warranty when we purchased the vehicle and I want to see if it's covered. Also, I'm a cheap a$$ and need to research who sells it the cheapest

The whole job should be less than your $100 deductible (unless the dealer wants to charge you for diagnosis).

You can get it cheaper off the internet.
