1999 honda accord coupe 6 cyc with climate control.
Last fall it stopped working . After alot of research and checking things out it was found to be a relay mounted behind the glove box on an indepedent bracket. Replaced it and all seemed work fine through the winter. a week ago it stopped again. replaced the relay once again and nothing. There is no power to the plug for the fan when the car is on. the controls appear to function right and the gates seem to open and close properly. Need to know what to check for next

Hi tamarlo,

I am unable to get a clear understanding of your problem.

What stopped working? The blower or all the controls? Are all the indicator lights on the control working?

Did you check for power supply to the relay that you replaced?

The controls for the climate apear to be working They light up and you can hear the gates functioning. There is a loss of power somewhere between the controls and the fan. No power at the plug for the fan. The fan speed control also seem to work as you can hear one of the relays clicking when you turn the knob to extreams.

Hi tamarlo,

So I get it that the blower motor is not blowing.

All the speeds?

Check for a blown fuse under bonnet. No 56 (40A)

I have checked all the fuses and pulled the fan and checked that all fuses have been tested with a meter all is working. I replaced the relay that was a problem last fall and that did not cure the issue.

Hi tamarlo,

If the Yellow/Black wire at the blower motor does not have any power supply, apply battery current and see if the AC works.

If it works, check the under bonnet AC relay. There are 5 relays at centre of fusebox arranged in a U shape, the one on the top right.
