    Delayed Start on A/C Fan

    So the old GQ TD42 has been having an issue recently whereby when first starting the car, though the AC kicks in, the cabin fan does not blow on any speed. However, when you drive down the road a bit it comes on again. At first i though it was the fan resistor so i replaced it with a new genuine Nissan one but it has made no difference. Anyone else experienced this and know what it might be? Dodgy earth, burnt plug ???? Thx

    I'd be looking for a intermittent connection somewhere. Also maybe find the relay and replace that... Good luck.

    Gave the Relay a bit of a wiggle and this morning the problem didnt occur. So will take it out at the weekend and see if its cooked. Any recommendations for a replacement? They seem to be hell expensive $46-$114 I have seen

    Realised I had a spare relay so swapped them out. Old one had burn marks over one of the pins extending into the Relay....
