How do I reset my fan motor?

How to Find and Reset your Furnace Motor Blower

1. Step 1: Turn off the power to the furnace.
2. Step 2: Remove the blower compartment cover.
3. Step 3: Make sure the blower is completely cooled off.
4. Step 4: Locate the reset button.
5. Step 5: Press the button in (assuming that this is your issue and that the button has popped).

Why is the resistor not working on my blower?

Hi There, The resistor is what controls the speed of the blower motor, not the relay. The blower motor relay supplies power to this motor when you turn the switch to “on” that can sometimes fail. When this happens, you may notice that you will not feel anything blowing out of the vents at all.

Where is the relay on a blower motor?

Correction assuming 97 is same (probably is)… Fan relay is as posted before on top of the duct work left of the resistors you can see both behind the glove box if you take it out. The purple wire comes from the relay/resistors according to fan speed selected.

How does a high speed blower motor work?

In the highest fan speed state, the blower resistor is bypassed completely and the fan is effectively connected directly to the car’s battery, allowing maximum current to be supplied to the blower motor.

Why is the blower motor not working on my car?

My car has an automatic transmission. Hi There, The resistor is what controls the speed of the blower motor, not the relay. The blower motor relay supplies power to this motor when you turn the switch to “on” that can sometimes fail. When this happens, you may notice that you will not feel anything blowing out of the vents at all.

Is there a high speed blower motor relay?

Yes there is a high speed relay which sounds like it is out. Here is a guide to help test it and the blower motor wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works with the relay location below as well. Check out the diagrams (Below).

Hi There, The resistor is what controls the speed of the blower motor, not the relay. The blower motor relay supplies power to this motor when you turn the switch to “on” that can sometimes fail. When this happens, you may notice that you will not feel anything blowing out of the vents at all.

What does the blower motor resistor do in a BMW?

What does the blower motor resistor do? The blower motor resistor in your BMW is part of the HVAC system, or the heating and air conditioning system. The system requires a motor, called the blower motor, which powers the fan utilized to propel air from your cabin vents.

How are the resistors arranged in a blower motor?

Heating systems with just 3 or 4 speeds use a motor resistor along with the speed switch to regulate the motor speed. The resistors are arranged in series to reduce the voltage in steps, depending on where in the series you apply power. Blower resistors can burn out. When that happens, you lose that speed.
