Ford GT Blower Motor Failure

My 2006 Ford GT with a gasoline engine has a fresh air blower issue. The blower motor isn't running, and there's an error stored. I suspect the blower motor is defective. Has anyone else had cabin fan problems?

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.

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.
