Skoda Yeti Blower Motor Failure

My Skoda Yeti, built in 2013 with a gasoline engine, has developed a rather annoying fault. The blower motor has completely stopped working. I've scanned it, and it's throwing up an AUC sensor fault. From what I've read, a likely cause is a defective cable or plug connection on the component. I've checked the obvious fuses. Has anyone else had issues with the BMW AUC or cabin air sensor causing this kind of problem? I'm hoping it's not a full sensor replacement job, as that seems overkill if it's just a dodgy connection.

The Skoda Yeti's blower motor failure was traced to an AUC sensor fault, likely due to a defective cable or plug connection. The issue was resolved by addressing a faulty connection on the AUC sensor, as confirmed by a professional workshop. This solution restored the blower motor's functionality, highlighting the sensitivity of the vehicle's components to connection issues.

I had a similar problem with my Skoda, though I can't remember the exact year. The blower motor was dead. I think it might have been the HVAC sensor. Could be worth checking that out. Is your AUC sensor giving any error codes?

Interesting! So, your blower motor also stopped working completely? And it was related to the HVAC sensor? Was it a straight swap, or did you need to do any diagnostics first? Where is the sensor located?

Yep, blower motor completely dead. From what I remember, the error code pointed towards the AUC sensor. I didn't do the work myself; I took it straight to a workshop. Saved me a lot of hassle. They said it was a bad connection. Best to get it checked by a professional; they'll be able to pinpoint the exact cause.

Thanks for the input! I took it to the shop, and you were spot on. It was a faulty connection on the AUC sensor. 95€ later, the blower's working perfectly again. Seems like these Skoda Yetis are more sensitive than I thought!
