So last week I'm driving (It's still hot here in Florida) and the LCD on the Climate Controller drops to 1 bar, then the fan motor cuts down to nothing....18 seconds later, it bounces back to all bars, and fan motor follows....OK...that's not good.
Couple of days later it does it again, 3 days ago, it started doing it every time I accelerate....same thing, down to one bar, fan follows then 15-18 seconds later back to normal....it was fine while idling or on the interstate...only upon acceleration....yesterday, everything works great...no issues at all.....This morning, it does it while on acceleration, hard braking, and driving on the interstate....a new trick this morning, while on the interstate the lcd stayed at all bars but the fan motor kept going to off....this would continue over and over, and one out of 8 times or so the lcd would flicker and go to one bar....
My mechanic states that all of the systems, blower, controller, baffles etc. are all tied together....last week he thought it may be a vacuum leak....I called him today and he thinks it may be the regulator or something on the blower motor.....I kind of figured it could be the controller....but I don't want to spend thousands trying to figure it out.....any ideas?
I think whatever it is, it's about to go anyways......as bad as it was today.
Oh yeah....1997 S500 Coupe
