Default need help with blower motor?

turn the car on in the morning to warm it up, turn the heat on nothing blows out (hot or cold air). Car warms up to running temp. blower works and sometimes dont. Took to the dealership, said it just needs to warm up before the blower motor works. Anyone having the same issue?

Haha, um, no, bring it back and say it should work in whatever weather the damn engine will start in, that's ridiculous. They're trying to get out of warranty work, find a different dealer...

You leaving it on Auto or actually turning it up to High , or whatever? It does have to be warmed up to kick on when on Auto. (Standing by for the "Moved)

Good point. Try again today. Make sure this AUTO selection is OFF.

it still does it, even when the car is warm up, it still doesnt work sometimes. I went to walmart, then 20 min later come back out to the car turn the heat on, nothing. Then i drive down the road for 5 min. cut the car off then back on then it works? WTH?? Could it be the relay or the blower motor itself?

Nissan makes everything complicate. Could be:

Blower motor
Blower motor circuit
or any associated electrical component such as LAN.

Actually I was referring to the far right control, which is the blower motor control. If that is left on Auto, it won't start blowing until warmed up. If, on the other hand, you turn it past Auto, like all the way to the right, it should start blowing, regardless of whether the engine is warmed up. But thanks for the graphic David.
