Hello bimmer peeps..

I have an 06 325 xi e91 wagon and all of the sudden i dont have air coming from the vents even with the fan turned all the way up. I can hear some electrical functioning noise from the fuse box area like it's trying to start up... I have checked all the fuses and they seem to be fine. I'm really confused as to why this this could happen? I've never experienced this before with other cars when its not a fuse.

thank you in advance,
todd

So you got fan to full blast but the fan is not spinning?

[nsjames]

it takes 15 minutes to pop out the fan.

pull it out and see if it's all rusty and wasted. if so, replace fan.

yes press the + button to full cell phone looking bars and no air comes out from the vents... so you you guys think its the fan huh?

[wagons4life]

do you mean the blower motor inside the Vehicle or the fan in the engine compartment? I found this video if it's for the blower motor is this correct? Thanks guys

Welcome to the Forum!

Have you had the Blower Motor Wiring Harness Recall performed on your vehicle? If you've NEVER registered with BMW as the current owner of the vehicle, you need to do that and schedule an appointment with the nearest Dealer for Recall work. Attached is a pdf "E9x References" which has links to many helpful things such as Bentley Manual, TIS Online Manual, BMW Owner Registration & Recall Info, etc. Also attached is the "RCRIT" that summarizes this recall, what is done in the recall, including how to access the Blower Motor.

For future reference, the "Fan" or E-Fan is the radiator fan under the hood, and the "Blower" motor is the Climate Control Blower INSIDE the car.

There is a possible failure of the Blower Motor Harness, where the Harness Connector attaches to the "Final Stage Resistor" (the device that controls Blower Speed). The Power Supply Red/Blue Wire and Ground Brown wire can short and melt the insulation, with a potential fire hazard. I would suggest immediately dropping the trim panel above the passenger footwell, and inspecting that connector (the blower is directly above the passenger footwell). If in doubt about the wiring, pull the fuse, F67 on the JB Fuse Panel. The Bentley Fuse Chart for vehicles built BEFORE 3/1/2007 is attached to the NEXT post in this thread, so as NOT to mess up margins of this post. Here is the TIS circuit diagram for the Blower Motor (M30), and the Final Resistor or Blower Output Stage (N2).
