528i Climate Control Fan Problem (archive)

I live in New Jersey and during last weeks heat wave in which temps. topped 100 degrees, the climate control fan took on a "mind of it's own" and has malfunctioned since. About 2 minutes after starting the car, the fan jumps up to full speed and then varies between low and high for no apparent reason. Manual override has no affect. In fact, the automatic setting is adjusting to the proper temperature speed setting but the fan is not responding.

I was hoping someone on this board may have some insight as the thought of having to call the dealer for service when it takes a month just to schedule an appointment is nauseating. I would love to be able to repair myself or take it to a shop that knows what they're doing. The dealer I purchased the car from can't even balance the wheels properly, and they're obnoxious to boot.
