I need some help..please!

I parked my truck (2001 Disco SE7 ...58K miles) after a 300 hundred mile trip.
Today when I tried turned on the A/C it would not work.

In detail: I turn on the A/C switch and the interface panel lights up. All the controls responds. That is to say the fan speed shows increments of speed and the "economy" button responds..however the BLOWER DOES NOT BLOW.
The AC Compressor also responds when the switch is turned on or off.....it just DOES NOT BLOW any air. The problem is also affecting the rear air..it too does not blow.

I checked two FUSES under the dash (per the panel markings). The fuses read good. I also checked one fuse under the hood...this too was good.
I see what appears to be an associated RELAY. I have not been able to check this.

Has anyone had a similar experience...and if so what was the solution?
Much appreciated.

Hugh


May we all live healthily in 2006 ( I mean...beyond as well)

Check the relays up by your battery box, may be the problem.

Thanks DiscoMike.

Coincidentally another Disco Pilot was posting the same problem at the same time..I saw yours and Beezel's response there as well.

I will check that relay tomorrow.

Much Obliged.

yours is a different problem then his. you have no blower at all. Unless you have two then its a completely diferrent.

It could be the blower motor or high speed relay. Need to diagnose the problem first. It could be the head unit but unlikely.

Beezel thanks for your response.

It appears that the problems are similar in that we both have rear air (SE7 here). My rear air blower was not functioning either.

However it seeems that I have good news (no I didnt save a ton of money with Geico.... ). After I posted, I fiddled with the related relay and bwala!
the infernal thing started to BLOW! So I will just continue to watch it and see what happens next. By the way ..no underhood work was done on this Rover for over 2 months except for an oil change...therefore no chance of that relay being molested......so ....ah dunno!

Once again thanks. :drink1:

I too have the same symptoms on my D2 w/o rear air. the blower motor works out of the truck, won't work in the truck, relays are good, fuses are good, i couldn't fine the resistor i have heard about, and i took it to a shop. they tell me that i need the "circuit board/fuse block" for the A/C. $650....... now, are we talking about the indash a/c controller unit because i saw one on ebay for $50.
