Blower Relay J323 - Replacement & Parts

My AFB engine is showing this error code when I read the diagnostic memory:

Error code: 1028
Relay for blower motor - Open circuit/short circuit to ground.

I've installed this in a boat, so I don't need a blower anywhere. However, I'm annoyed by the error - even though it doesn't seem like a big problem...

What relay is that supposed to be? When I check the wiring diagrams, I can't find anything. It's not listed for the radiator fan, the air conditioning system, or as an input signal to the control unit. It's also not listed as a relay with that designation in the Etos system.

Habs gefunden, ist tatsächlich das Relais für die Lüfteransteuerung und wird über das Motorsteuergerät gesteuert.. Das hat aber im Stromlaufplan eine andere Bezeichnung (J397). Waruwhatever it may be...

Okay, then I guess I'll just have to live with the error...

Hi,

You could "emulate" the relay using a resistor.

Regards,

Sure, here is the translation of the text from German to English:

Yes, I was thinking the same thing. I have some nice power resistors that should be perfect for that.
