Default Blower for A/C stopped working (750mi)

I picked up my Z on Monday and on Thursday the A/C doesn't blow out anything. I can hear the compressor click when you turn it on, but no air at all, not even heat. I made an appointment, but this is a huge inconvenience. I sold my last car because i needed something that wouldn't have problems like this. Now i'm not too happy, has this happened to anyone else?

yeah, i know that. But the fact that i have to take it there after work when i have other stuff to do is what makes me mad. It shouldn't have any problems in the first place. At least i get to beat on a loaner for a day or so.

The dealers suck anyway...They are all snakes if you ask me.My first 350z was redline red and i got it back in Nov 2002 and it was repainted by nissan for orange peel on Jan 2003..But I got rid of it and got a sunset lemans. p.s. wait to you hit 1000 miles or so and take a look at the rock chips on your front bumper...

Opps:

Heard of this compliant before... The Connector to the blower motor, was not attached. Air conditioner is running. But Switching to blower, does not flip the vent Control opener.

Cheers Amy -

It's an item in the factory manual.

mine did the same thing two days after i got my g. First they replaced my blower motor which they said was bad. About 6 months later it stopped again so i took it in and they replaced the fuses. 7 months later it happened again the fuses are bad again. So i asked them to find what was making the fuses blow so I could stop bringing my car in every 6 months for the same thing. They eventually traced the problem to the wiring harness and i have not had a problem since. My car is 2 and 1/2 now. 50k miles

I’m sorry to revive this thread. I’m experiencing the same symptoms. 2 x 15A fuses for blower motor blew immediately upon turning the ignition. Tried twice and the same thing happened. Anyone here ever had this issue? Will changing the blower motor solve this?
