Possible causes include a bad blower motor, faulty wiring, a blown fuse, or a faulty relay. Solutions suggested include checking the electrical wiring, replacing the blower motor resistor, and potentially replacing the blower motor itself.

Thanks. I thought about the electrical, but did you get the same error code? Did replacing the wiring fix it?

Yes, I had a persistent error code for the blower motor circuit. Checking the wiring is smart, but I had to replace the blower motor resistor and the blower motor to fix it for good. A workshop visit might be a good idea.

Thanks for confirming. I'll replace the blower motor like I thought. The repair cost me 365€. Thanks for your help.

I have a Sonic too, and had a similar problem. Check the electrical wiring to the blower motor and the HVAC controls. It could be a blown fuse or a faulty relay.
