X5 Blower Fuse

[Januszon]

Hi,
Got 2001 X5, 80,000 miles and mo blower is dead. No A/C no ventilation.
I was looking to check fuse on blower, but on fuse panel (trunk, RH side) there is none listed.
Does anybody know more about that ?
Also noticed that on that panel I mostly have auxiliary equipment fuses, but no major (like power windows, p/locks,) where are than fuses for major circuits ?
I'm new to X5 (and BMW), great car, but sometimes puzzling...:)

Thank you very much,
januszon

It is a bad final stage resistor. The fuse rarely blows. This is a very common problem. No fan, no or abnormal behavior, works like it has a mind of its own...these are all symptoms. This link may help.

For your info the fuse panel is in the glove box at the top. And yes the problem is most likely the final stage.
