DelSolSweetie Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 hey! okay so.. after we painted the engine bay, put in the new headlights etc we ran into a problem and not sure if its related or not when the car is off and the key is out the blower motor will still turn on (can turn it from off to 1 to 4 etc)... the lights for blowing it to your feet defrost etc also will work.. well it was draining the battery.. took out the relay and that fixed the blower coming on but the lights will still come on but the battery isnt getting killed at least anyway the blower is the only accessory that will come on... the windows and everything thing wont work if the car is off (like they shouldnt) tried changing the relay.. didnt help anything any ideas? already checked all ground (pretty sure at least) ands made sure everything was plugged in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeryon Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Wow, that's odd. The power for the blower and lights is usually interrupted when the ignition is disengaged. Somewhere in that swap of yours someone must have crossed a power wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelSolSweetie Posted March 27, 2010 Author Share Posted March 27, 2010 (edited) thats what we were thinking but we went through the wires i dont know how many times and everything is plugged in properly and nothing was cut what really gets me is all the other accessories stay off Edited March 27, 2010 by DelSolSweetie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmgogo Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I was having the same problem too on solvic #1 even before it was a solvic. And I know 4 other solers that have the same issue. Basicly It happened for me for a week or 2, then it just stopped and the problem never came back. The same has been true for the other solers. Talked to techs, engineers, etc and none of them have any idea after we troubleshot every possible thing. It also seemed to start about this time of the year as well. Maybe has something to do with rising humidty causing a short in a relay somewhere? So my suggestion to you (and what I did) is make it a habit of turning the fan into the off position when you turn off your car. Sorry I cant be of anymore help sara.

cmgogo Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 yours was simpler than mine haha, well atleast you found the root of your problems. I still have to figure out why mine still only blows on 4, and its not the switch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
