You probably need this-
12 64-11-6-923-204 FINAL STAGE UNIT 1 63.20Roger>
Do you mean the fan(s) that blow air into the cabin?
If so, this works totally independently of the AC as it's used for heating
- or just fresh air. If it's not running at all, it's likely the final stage resistor burnt out, and any dealer should have got this immediately as it's a *very* common fault on an E39. Costs about 50 quid for the part and is DIY possible, although slightly fiddly.
Here is a link showing how to replace it. Takes about 5 minutes.

Rather more on a RHD car.
Don't know any teenagers? ;-)
I have two, but our public schools are apparently better than the ones this person attended. I am truly confised by his (or her) post.
Ha ha ha.
When my knuckles stop bleeding, I'll post the full story of the replacement :)
