2008 bmw 128i Ac Not Working

All of a sudden blower fan not working anymore.

Blower fan works when I connect it directly to the battery.

Replaced Resistor and Blower motor anyway. Still not working

There is 12volt going to the resistor. The power coming out of the resitor to the blower is very weak. I ground the brown (-) dorectly to the car metal chassis then the fan spins even though I turned off the climate control.

What could be next? I am thinking the climate control switch is bad?

I wonder if anyone has similiar issue?

Not sure if you saw my response on the 1M forum, you should take it to the dealer and ask that they check for the fan motor wiring recall before you do more stuff. If it has been done, htey can see if happened again or fix it for free. If your car is not under the recall, then you can proceed but you really should check that first before your car goes up in flames. Best wishes.
