My daughter was driving and said within 2 minutes of starting car the blower shut off and would not come on again. I drove it 2 hrs earlier and it worked fine. I would like to know if you have any suggestions. Thankyou.

Check blower motor relay could be failing at junction block behind left side of dash and the AC Electronic Control Unit behind lower center of dash

If the problem recurs, give the blower motor housing some banging with your hands, If it starts up, the blower motor is failing.
