INTERMITTEN BLOWER MOTOR

[FOFOTWO]

NEWBY HERE. I WILL MAKE THIS KINDA SHORT . (2007 FX35 60,000) BLOWER MOTOR COMES ON WHEN IT FEELS LIKE IT. PURCHASED A JUNK YARD BLOWER MOTOR WITH SAME RESULTS. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP (90 MILES 1-WAY) TOLD SERVICE GUY THE PROBLEM, AND HE SAID THEY WOULD HAVE TO PUT ON DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE. THEIR FINDINGS WERE REPLACING THE BLOWER MOTOR ($480.00). DID NOT REPLACE. CHARGED $100.00 TO HOOK UP TO THEIR FANCY DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE. LEFT THE DEALERSHIP THOROUGHLY PISSED OFF, $100.00 LIGHTER IN THE WALLET, AND STILL NOT FIXED. DID SOME SEARCHING ON FORUMS AND COULDN'T FIND A LIKE SITUATION (SCANNED QUICKLY - WORK). LOCAL MECHANIC SUGGESTED A RELAY BEHIND THE FUSE PANEL. PULLED BAD RELAY (PART# 25230-79942 BLUE NAIS) THERE IS ANOTHER RELAY NEXT TO IT THAT IS THE SAME WHICH CONTROLS THE DISPLAY SCREEN. SWAPPED THE RELAYS AND BLOWER WORKED AS IT SHOULD. FOUND REPLACEMENT RELAY ON EBAY FOR 15.00. RECEIVED YESTERDAY AND INSTALLED. WORKS PERFECTLY. TOOK ME A TOTAL OF 15-MINUTES TO REPLACE. (VERY EASY JOB) I DON'T KNOW IF COLUMBUS, OHIO INFINITI WAS TRYING TO PULL A FAST ONE, OR ARE ACTUALLY THAT CLUELESS, BUT THIS DOESN'T SIT WELL WITH ME. HOPE THIS MIGHT HELP SOMEONE ELSE BEFORE THEY FORK OVER THEIR HARD-EARNED MONEY. THANKS B.J. PLEASE REPLY IF THIS IS ON THE FORUM ALREADY
