Interior blower fan defective in VW Golf 7

In the above-mentioned vehicle with air conditioning and automatic temperature control, sporadic or complete failure of the interior blower fan can occur.

In order to remedy the problem, the error memory of the air-conditioning/heating control unit should be read out. If the error code refers to a mechanical error (e.g. B10BE07), a defect of the blower motor could well be the cause. If the error code refers to the power supply or the signals (e.g. B10BE31), then in most cases the electronic blower controller is defective.

Before replacing components, other causes of malfunction (defective fuse) should be ruled out. In addition, it is advisable to check whether a software update is available for the air-conditioning/heating control unit.
