Default Blower Fan and Defrost Function Issues

Hi guys, i have some trouble with the 964 that i cant figure out...

I am having trouble activating the defrost function and heating at maximum speed (level 4).

What I Have Done So Far:
  1. I replaced all blown fuses related to the fans and all others in general.
  2. I replaced a faulty relay for the rear blower motor in the engine bay.
    • The rear blower now spins quietly when the key is in ignition position 1.
  3. I upgraded the rear temperature resistor.
  4. I checked all fuses – they are good.
  5. The front blower fans spin correctly.
Current Symptoms:
  • When heat turned up and blower speed 0 to approximately 1.8, everything works fine.
  • From blower speed 1.9 up to 4:
    • The blower starts for a few seconds and then shuts off.
    • The same issue occurs with the defrost function – it starts for 2–3 seconds and then stops.
  • On the cold setting, the blower works all the way up to level 4 without any problems.
  • Heat is not mixing:
    • I get only cold air on one setting and only hot air on another, with no temperature blending.
    • The servos are checked and are working correctly.
What could be the issue? I have read a ton, but cant find the answer to this issue.... Anyone who has had the same issue and could give me some adivse?

THANK YOU!!
