A/c problem / future issue

Today after taking the fiancé to lunch we got back in the FR-S and to my dismay the a/c didnt respond (No blower fans running in the cabin) So I pulled the fuse which was still good and reinstalled. Checked the a/c and it ran normally . Anyone know if this could be a bigger issue on its way?

I wouldn't worry about it, unless it did it again.

You might consider buying a new fuse to have on hand, in case it acts up again.

Thanks, will get an extra fuse.

Only thing that just happened was I had it on 4 and it was blowing only lightly but when I selected 2 and put it back on 4 it was normal. So weird.

Sounds like a blower motor going out. They'll get stuck at a certain point, then take off again.

What level lightly? Like 1, 3, or less than 1?

Was blowing lightly at 3 then I turned it down and off then back on all the way to 4 and acted normal since then. Bought an extra fuse just really hoping the blower motor lasts

Fuses don’t go bad, they blow when they are overloaded.

Maybe it will run forever and never stick, maybe it won’t. Blower motor and regulator are cheap and easy to replace.
