Cabin fan don't work :(

Hi!

First of all sorry for my bad english, i'm from Quebec!

So i have a very annoying problem with my cobalt,

Cabin fan don't work at all, when i press on the A/C i can hear the ticking song.

I record with my iPhone the problem, i hope you guys can help me because nobody in Quebec seem to know how to resolve this problem because not a lot of people have this car here and there is no French cobalt forum

Thank you soooo much!

your blower motor is probably out. That happened to me 2 weeks ago. I had to buy a new one.

Thanks for the reply,

Is there a way to be sure it's the blower motor? It is expensive to replace?

Thanks

Thanks for your help

I check all the fuse on the passenger side of the car,

Is there anywhere other fan fuse? Maybe under the hood or...

Thanks

@chevygirl2006 : I'll probably ask the dealer to find the problem and i'll replace it by myself I want the dealer to tell me if it's really the Blower motor because if it's a electrical problem, i'll change the motor for nothing xD!!!!

Thanks

Good morning leredhead,

I see that you're going to be visiting your dealership; if you should require further assistance I would recommend contacting GM of Canada at 800-263-3777 (Hours: M-F 7:30am - 11:30pm, Sat 7:30am - 6:00 EST).

All the best,
Sarah
GM Customer Service
