Rear FSU, blower switch or blower motor providing power is getting to the switch.

Terminator X5,

The fuses are all good.

Zulu95,

If the rear blower or FSU is the culprit, how can I gain access to the blower & FSU in the rear middle console, please advise.

Thanks again for your swift response.

since the fuses are good, the next step is naturally, the FSR... then, the motor... you are on the correct path... I am trying to see if there are any internal conditions that preclude the rear blower stops working, but so far i did not find anything...

could be something trivial like a pinched or broken wire to a switch or to motor... was there any spill in the central console? any coffee, coke? coke can be very corrosive...

Zulu95 & Terminator X5,

Thanks for the swift responses.

I do not see signs of any spillage on the center console.

Would a faulty FSR stop the blower from working?

Thanks again for your assistance.

FSR is the motor control so it is possible a faulty FSR would stop the motor. Until tested EVERYTHING in the circuit is suspect.
