Ford GT Blower Motor Failure
Summary of the thread
A 2006 Ford GT owner reported a problem with the fresh air blower motor not running and an error code being stored. The issue was suspected to be a defective blower motor. A suggestion was made to check the fan speed controller, as it could prevent the motor from receiving power. Ultimately, the problem was diagnosed at a workshop, confirming the blower motor was defective, and it was repaired.

Thank you for your suggestion. I haven't checked the fan speed controller yet. Where is it located, and how can I test it?

On my BMW, it was located near the blower motor, under the dashboard on the passenger side. You could try checking the voltage going to the blower motor with a multimeter when the fan should be running. If there's no voltage, then the controller might be faulty. Honestly, with the error code already present, it might be best to have a workshop diagnose it properly.

Thank you for the advice. Checking the fan speed controller seemed like a good starting point, but I took it to a workshop for diagnosis. The blower motor was indeed defective. The repair cost me 365€ including parts and labor.

Sounds familiar. I had a similar problem with my old BMW 3 Series. The cabin fan wouldn't blow, and it turned out to be a faulty fan speed controller. It regulates the voltage to the blower motor, controlling how fast it spins. If it fails, the motor won't get power. Did you check this? It might be related to the error code stored.
