Stilo Blower Failure

My 2006 Fiat Stilo with a gasoline engine has a fresh air blower that's completely stopped. Mileage is 186038 km. I've checked all the fuses, but it's lifeless. The diagnostic tool shows an error, but I'm at my wit's end. Could the blower motor be dead? No air flow whatsoever!

Summary of the thread

The conversation centers around a 2006 Fiat Stilo with a non-functional fresh air blower. Despite checking the fuses, the blower remains lifeless, leading to speculation about a possible blower motor failure. A suggestion to check the resistor pack is made, but ultimately, a workshop visit confirms the blower motor is defective. The issue is resolved with a replacement, restoring airflow.

Sounds frustrating. I had something similar with my Stilo when the air circulation stopped. Have you checked the resistor pack? It's a common issue that can cause the blower to fail completely, or only work on certain settings.

A resistor pack? I haven't looked at that. Where is it located? Is it difficult to replace? My technical expertise is limited to checking fluids and fuses.

I couldn't tell you exactly where it is. I vaguely remember looking for it but couldn't find it, so I took it to a workshop. They confirmed it was the blower motor itself that was defective. If you're not confident, I'd recommend a professional.

I took it to the workshop, and you were spot on - the blower motor was defective! The repair including labor and parts came to 365€, but at least I have some air flow again. Thank you for your help!
