The second to the last sentence says that I can hear the fan running and at different speeds depending on the needs of the temperature setting.

This is the type-S model.
I checked the #3 fuse, it is fine, if I remove it, the entire system does not turn on.

Again, the system turns on, the temp is controllable but the amount of air coming out of any of the vents is almost nil.

Are you saying that the air mix motor inside the dash is either faulty or not getting power? Do you know how to get to this motor? Does the entire dash need to be removed or just the center section? Does the dealer need to be the ones to replace this part?

TIA

I found this diagram, it shows 2 different motor assemblies. Can you say for sure that is would be the Mode motor assy or the Air Mix motor assy or could it be both? I cannot seem to send the file so I will send a link to the site.

I have visually verified that the mode and air mix motors are working properly. I have very little air flow coming out of any of the vents. As stated above, I cannot feel air flow where the cabin air fiters go either. Is there a place where there could be a physical blockage with the air flow before the air gets to the air filter area?
