I have had a problem today with the blower on the car. It has stopped working. In addition to this I have rigged the A/C button to control the cooling fans, this has also stopped working.

The lights for both the buttons A/C and Recirculating now no longer come on and the fan cannot be turned on.

I have been looking about and it would appear to point to a fuse No 21, but my car is a phase 3 and I do not have this fuse. The closest one I can see would be No 20 on a PH3, but my car does not have this fuse in (like the picture in the FAQ).

Does anyone have any suggestions on starting points? Am I missing a fuse somewhere? I did check all the fuses last night when it happened, but they all looked ok (it was dark though).

Obviously in this colder wetter weather I would like to get this working ASAP, but am not sure the best way to start, as the only threads I can see either haven't been answered, or seem to point to the Diode in the A/C control panel, but I have no idea yet how to get to it.

Help would be appreciated!

Matt

Ahh ok Thanks. Which relays are they? The ones in the fuse compartment under the steering wheel?

yep they're the ones. just try swapping them for a known working one or swap them over temporarily as i think there's a couple of matching ones. i don't know which is which though, but worth a try anyway

Did the A/C and other button stop working also when you had this issue Doon?

just test the relay, 15 seconds job

if it takes more than 1.85 seconds to pull the relay out, it's stuck in place and burned out

Any scrappy housing a peugeot should get you another relay
