I have a 1998 Range Rover 4.0. My Yellow relay for my Heater Blower motor (located in the fuse box under the hood) keeps blowing. When it blows there is a brown burn mark on one side of the relay. Also, the socket where this relay goes has the same brown burn mark on one side of the socket hole. Any help or advice is appreciated.

Thanks,

Dale

You are going to burn up a wire harness, if you haven't already. Most likely the blower motor is locked up or shorted.
Let some one that knows the system check it ou and pull the relay and fuse in the mean time.

 

make sure your pollen filters are not dirty and clogged up. it puts strain on the blower motor, causing high amp draw through the relay.

 

you need a new fuse box dude. its a common issue..

 

did you ever fix the problem, i have similar issue, right blower motor stopped, it was a fuse, changed fuse, motor worked then stopped, pulled motor and hot wired it and it worked, reinstalled motor, one relay not functionng, bought new relay, it melted within 1 day and the fuse blew, any ideas?
