A year or so ago my heater blower stopped working. The recirculation button wasn't working so I assumed it was the relay in the footwell and a year later I got round to replacing it.
To test it was the relay, I swapped it with the electectric window relay and all worked well. I bench tested the old one to confirm it was dead. I ran the blowers for about an hour before putting the relay back for the windows and nipping to the shops to buy another relay.
Windows were working fine until I put the new relay into the blower socket. Now, neither the Windows or the blower work. I have removed the relays and 12v tested then and they both click and both are showing 0.1 resistance between 87 and 30 when open..
So what's at play here? Is there something linking these two? I've checked both fuses on blower and fuse for windows. Everything else seems to be working.
Cheers
