No air on the blowers

[Originally Andor]

I was driving to the uni yesterday when my blowers went from hero to zero. luckily I was with a friend who knows a little about these things, so he checked this hose around the glove box and pushed it towards the fan. right then there the fan worked as usual.

But after around 15 20 mins, back to almost no air! has anyone experienced this? what should i do?

The blower motor or its resistor might be acting up which can cause airflow to drop after a while. Checking for lose connections or worn out parts could be the ticket to getting it back in shape. Have you noticed any unusual noises or changes in fan speed?

Check the hose like @mixed-ba99a9e probably there's something loose there or also if you can check for obstructions that would be GREAT. If the hose is ok it's gotta be a problem of the blower motor and fan so... just visit a mechanic or something.

Were you able to figure this out? I agree with everyone else here. it's possible that there's something loose that you can't see.

It seems like the blower motor might be on its way out. When you pushed on the hose, it probablly created a temporary connection, but I wouldn't be surprised if the problem comes back. It could be due to worn brushes or a bad resistor. You might get it working again for a short while by tapping it, but honestley, replacing the motor would be the best solution in the long run
