AC blower working sporadically....
New to the forums...
I have a 2002 S8, 95k miles, w/ solar sunroof, purchased within the last month. When purchased, AC was working fine. Early this week, the AC blower wouldn't come on at all. I've had a couple of instances driving the car since then when the blower would come back on and everything is good.
After searching through the forums, I'm pretty suspicious that the problem may be in the solar panel relay.
Would appreciate any thoughts/input. Thanks in advance.

Follow-up...
Diagnosed the blower weekend before last. Had voltage at the power wiring for the blower. Also, was able to get the blower to turn after giving it a "nudge." Conclusion...bad blower motor, not bad relay.
Replaced the blower motor this weekend, all seems good.

Glad to hear you were able to fix it.
