2002 996 AC/Fan Problem
2002 Carrera 2 with 34K miles. AC worked great earlier this week, but now is kaput. Just bought car on Monday; so I have no prior experience with this particular vehicle.
Here's what happened:
Was running AC, switched to defrost for a minute. Fan quit blowing and still will not blow under any circumstance. No messages available on the onboard computer. Not only will the fan not blow, but the A/C button will not even make the A/C indicator light come on. All other electronic indicators on the center console--"auto" button, temp +/-, fan speed +/-, vent selection, etc. work same as always.
The fuse box map indicates three fuses related to A/C. I pulled and inspected those three. None appeared burned out, but I stuck replacements in nonetheless. Made no difference.
Ideas? One curiosity...is the AC and fan one unit? If so, anyone have a ballpark on part/labor cost to replace?
Upside is that open sunroof and two open windows can circulate lots of 100 degree Memphis air...
