Exclamation 1999 subaru i impreza no air coming from heaters?

ive almost given up on my impreza turbo and its just been sat on my drive for the last few weeks as the heaters are not working and is too hot to get inside, well first of all i have checked the fuses under the drivers side compartment & bonnet, swapped some of the relay plugs around from under the bonnet to see if it may have been a faulty relay, i have took the glove compartment out to see if there is a 4 pin relay plug which may be faulty, however my car doesn't have one in that location, i have pulled the plug from the blower to see what volt reading i am getting, only from one wire i get around 11/12 volts, the other 3/4 wires dont have a reading? im completely confused and need my ventilation fan working please if anybody could help that would be great. p.s when i turn the heater switch on i can hear a clicking noise front behind the driver side speedometer sort of area, but no air comes out of the vents at all?

could somebody advise where to check next as im out of ideas?

thanks

There are relays up under the dash, driver's side. They are high up and can usually be FELT, or SEEN, but not both at once unless you are a midget contortinist

Not really, but if you can HEAR it clicking, get down and reach up and you can probably FEEL it too.

Which means you can get hold of it, pull it down, disconnect it and put a new one in, either from a motor factors, HellFrauds, car-electrics place or www.vehiclewiringproducts.co.uk.

There are only so many relays out there, yours will be a standard type, replace it, a few £££ see if it clears the problem.

I had a similar problem on my classic and it turned out the blower motor was shot. I would pop that out and check if its getting power first and then give the unit power to see if it spins.
