DS5 air blower issue at max speed

Unread post by Mares »

Hi,

Recently air fan/blower started to fail while operating at max speed (or one level slower). After 2-3 minutes of blowing at max speed, if reduced blowing force to minimum (I can barely feel a breeze on my hand) and I can hear some clicking sound coming behind the dashboard. To re-start the fan, I switch it off and turn back on, on slower speeds it operates fine constantly.

Garage says it might be some regulator (not sure about English word, if this is rheostat/pressure switch) of maybe fan itself. I have appointment for next Thursday, but want to check your comments before leaving the car. Any complications with this repair?

In 10 days I am going on a holiday trip with my family and AC is my best friends, did not like this happens at this moment...

May be the blower motor control module that needs replacing - a common issue.
Please note, I'm no longer active on the Forum, so won't respond to messages.

Update: air fan was malfunctioned, replaced with the new one, now blowing works normally.
