    I have a 2015 Prius and the AC blower is shutting off somewhat randomly. I live in Arizona so I use the AC frequently. When its on full blast the blower will eventually shut off after 10-15 minutes. If I turn the AC control off then back on the blower works again but sometimes just for a minute or two. If I run the AC at medium fan speed it seems the blower is fine. The faster the blower spins the sooner it shuts down.

    I've replaced the blower and it's still the same issue. Any advice on what the next step to troubleshoot this would be?

    There's the thing that the blower is connected to, the blower controller. That would be the next thing to replace
