Blower Fan Airbag dash light

Hello. Sorry if this is an old topic. My AC heater blower quit working also at the same time airbag light came on dash. I read to replace fuse. Done. Worked then stopped again. Replaced fuse and Relay. Worked then stopped again. It works only for a short time before quitting. While on it works flawless on all speeds and AC blows ice cold. What am I missing? 2002 Mazda B4000. 6 cyl

Have you checked the blower motor resistor?

Take the steering wheel and driver's air bag off. Be sure you remove the negative and positive battery cables. Allow a couple of minutes before removing the steering wheel. You will probably need a two jaw puller to remove the steering wheel. There is a wire that rubs against the metal, Usually a gray wire, that shorts out. Wrap the wire with electrical tape and "Bingo" your problem is remedied. Don't forget to replace the 10 amp fuse and hopefully you are in business.
