Fixed my rear A/C blower! Bad fuse clip.

Just a tip, everyone.
The blower for the back seats quit, after a couple months of erratic operation.
I found the problem to be in the fuse box itself - the one where you open the passenger side door, and take the cover off the side of the dash.
One of the fuse clip terminals had quit gripping the blade of the fuse. I could see the black arc marks on the fuse blade, and some signs of arcing in the clip itself. The fuse was still good inside.
I gave the blade of the fuse a slight twist, and re-inserted it. The fan has worked just fine ever since.
Got an annoying electrical problem? Open this panel, and start wiggling the fuses. You might find yours, too. :smile:
