Grandland X Blower Motor Failure

Hi, I have a 2022 Vauxhall Grandland X, diesel engine, with 235577 km on the clock. The fresh air blower has stopped working. The blower motor doesn't run at all, and there's an error stored in the error memory. I suspect the blower motor is defective, but I wanted to check if anyone else has experienced this before I start pulling things apart.

Hey, sounds familiar. I have a Grandland X as well, though I can't remember what year it is. I had a similar problem with my heater fan last winter. Check your electrical wiring and connections first. Sometimes it’s just a loose connector or a blown fuse. Does the climate control display work?

Thanks for the tip. The climate control display is working fine, so it's probably not a fuse. Which electrical connections did you check specifically?

To be honest, I just wiggled a few around near the blower motor after checking the fuses. I got lucky, I guess. But if your display is fine and the fuse is good, it's probably the motor itself. I'd take it to a workshop if I were you. Could be more complicated than it looks.

OK, thanks for the advice. I took it to a local garage, and they confirmed it was the blower motor. Repair cost me 365€. All working again now!
