Default Need help with A/C issue!

My gf's 2007 tC is occasionally not working with the fan. When I push the button to originally turn on the fan I can hear the relay click as well as when i push the button OFF. What makes this problem even more interesting is that it's not permanent, sometimes this happens and sometimes it works.

My gf thinks it might have something to do with the temperature outside since it worked this morning when it was cooler but not yesterday afternoon when it was much warmer. Anyone else had this problem or know what it could be?

Might have a bad relay or fuse. Check/replace them both before doing anything else.

I called the dealership and found out she's still under warranty luckily even though she thought she wasn't. I'll post up the result tomorrow

they couldn't find an absolute reason it was having an issue. They didn't want me to leave without doing something though so they replaced the blower motor inside the dash on the passenger side and we haven't had an issue since.
