Default Climate control fan dead at 32,000 miles

2013 Boxster S, 32,000 miles CPO done as of Jan 2019. Anyone else have climate control issues on a 981? It does not appear to be a fuse unfortunately.

Not sure if it’s the same fan but I’ve read about one of the fans in the front sticking and all it needs is a spin by hand to get going , although if under warranty bring it in jammed as if you free it they wonder replace, they will If still faulty when presented

Climate control fan alive at 32,000 miles!!! Thanks guys for the tip. Just a little jiggle and the fan is working again. Weird that this would fix it, there was no resistance or indication of a problem. Saved me the hassle of going to the dealer and spending $$$ unnecessarily. I wonder how long till the next jiggle needed. Thanks again guys.
