02 X5 AC issues

Hello everyone,

Its my first post here so be kind....


I have a 02 X5 with over 100,000 miles.

The ac works perfect blowing to the back seat but does not blow to the front vents at all.

To the back it only allows the back controls to work the fan speed is not adjustable from the front controller.

If I turn off the AC button the air will flow into the dash vents and the center vent will allow me to adjust the temperature slightly.

If the AC button is on and then I turn it off a rush of AC'ed air comes from the front vents.

It seems to me the front fan is not working.
Any idea on fixing this with out taking it to the dealer?


Thanks allot,
Gary

Did you make sure there isn't a rag in the line somewhere?

That is pretty funny, I have not looked into the rag theory yet.

But, thanks for the idea.
