Hi,

Suddenly, the fan stopped working on my car.

I am pretty sure it is the fan and not the A/C (compressor or else) because on the highway. When I am on 130Km/H, I can clearly feel the cool air (when selected to AC) -- or the hot air (when selected to heater).

I checked all the fuses - all OK

I am lost. Someone told me it is a "module" to be replaced, but I am not sure

I have a second question :

How to unlock speed limiter on my car? I can't go more than 200 KM/h (the car allows 260 KM/h)

Many thanks for your help

I'm not aware of any speed govenor on the car.

Regarding the fan, do you mean the that you arent getting any volume of air flow on any speed you select?

I have very little info on this system. It looks like the main components are the blower motor itself, the Blower motor relay, the climate control module and the blower controller.

I'll email you the diagrams.

You can put power and ground to the motor to see if the motor is bad.

You can swap another relay to see if the relay is bad.
