How does a blower motor reduce the speed of a fan?

In a vehicle equipped with a blower motor resistor, voltage is reduced by the value of the each resistor based on the position of the fan switch. The lower voltages result in lower fans speeds. The downside of blower motor resistors is that, in order to reduce voltage, a resistor converts the energy into heat.

Why does my AC blower keep turning off?
