Hi, I am stumped. When I turn the key to the on position it seems like the motor tries to start for a second or 2 and then stops. A couple of years ago I had a similar problem and replaced the blower resistor and it worked. Thought it might be the same thing so replaced it again and no luck.
I looked at your site and found a topic that discussed the self diagnostic using the climate control auto and off buttons. I have done it a couple of times and it seems to indicate both code I and code N. How should I proceed from this point? New blower motor?

Sounds as if the blower motor is failing, I would make sure that there is no debris jamming the motor, leaf litter can get down into the fan and binding up the works, check this first.
