RandyAM Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 so yesterday morning, im driving around, and the heater is working fine. park the car, come out, turn the car on, no heater. i know the blower motor is under the radio, but where the hell is the fuse for the blower motor?

Xeryon Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 do you have no heat or no blower? they are entirely different things when it comes to the systems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xeryon Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 ok, so it's not the heater its the blower. shouldn't be too tough. like you noted, first check is the fuse, after that you are in deep doodoo cause blowers are an irritation to replace, but not expensive. google fuse panel for your specific make and model and browse the images. should be able to find your diagram in a few minutes.

Escape-performance Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 most cars have a resistor pack on the blower motor case, it controls the speed, make sure power is going in and out of that before you just buy a motor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyAM Posted December 15, 2010 Author Share Posted December 15, 2010 so it started working today............and i did nothing...............WTF?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelSolSweetie Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 the resistor pack going bad normally causes the 1 and 2 not to work and the 3 and 4 still work... such as mine is doing but yah there is a fuse.. and then a big fuse in the big panel under the hood but if its working then cool! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it does not work on the lower settings but does on setting 4 then it is the resistor (or transducer - not sure which type on your car) but they both do the same thing. OR the blower motor is failing if it stops at all levels. The best way to test for that is when it stops again which it may, take your hand or your foot and give the blower motor a good wack. Do it a few times to see if it starts up again. If so there is a bad spot in the blower motor and it needs to be replaced. It is just like sometimes when a starter is going bad there is a bad spot where it wont turn but if you wack it with a block of wood and a hammer you can often times get it to turn. If it is the motor it may have started working again because you hit a good bump or something which moved it from the bad spot, thus it runs again until it get stuck at the bad spot again...
