What causes a blower fan to not work?

When this happens, you may notice that you will not feel anything blowing out of the vents at all. This may also cause the blower motor to work intermittently.

What causes a fuse to blow on a blower motor?

If the blower motor relay develops any sort of problem that hinders its ability to properly limit and distribute power, it may cause the blower motor fuse to blow. Any sort of electrical spikes or excessive current from a bad relay will blow the fuse and cut power in order to protect the system.

Is the blue wire positive or negative in a blower fan?

The resistor DOES operative thru the negative side. Red wire is positive (gets redirected to blower directly from resistor terminal). Black wire is negative into resistor, blue wire is negative out to blower. And i assume the yellow wire is variable voltage into resistor.

How to troubleshoot an electric cooling fan problem?

1.Has the Cooling Fan Actually Failed? 1 If the fan comes on when the AC is running at MAX, but doesn’t run when the engine is hot, check the temperature sensor… 2 If the fan fails to come on, first check for a fan blown fuse or triggered breaker. On older vehicle models, you may… More

Where is the 10 Amp Fuse on a Dodge fan?

The Dodge owner’s manual contradicts this and shows no 10 amp fuse for the purpose of a blower relay, inside the junction box. Checked the blower with direct power and it works. Checked for incoming resistance ground to the blower, from the dash control switch and it works. Checked for battery at the blower, when the car is running.

Can a bad fan motor cause a breaker to blow?

CAUTION: If the fan fuse or fusible link is blown, or the breaker has been triggered, it is possible the fan motor itself may be bad and causing the fuses to blow. Replace the fuse or fusible link, or reset the breaker, and test the fan motor again. If the same problem appears and there’s no wire causing a short circuit, replace the fan motor.

Can a radiator fan and condenser fan share a relay?

There are, however, some models that use a dedicated second unit to the condenser. In such a scenario, the condenser fan and radiator fan may or may not share the same relay. If the cooling fan does not engage, you can check whether the relay is to blame by swapping it out for a different relay.

What can cause heater not work?

The most obvious reason an electric heater doesn’t work is that it’s not receiving any power . Start by checking the circuit breaker to see if it has been tripped. If it has, it’s an easy fix – simply turn it off and turn it back on again. You may also have to replace the fuse if it has blown.

What to do if car heater is not working?

Check the heater core temperature. Lift the hood and check the temperature around where the heater core hoses enter the heater core box. The safest way to do this is with a non-contact infrared thermometer. If one hose is the same temperature as the coolant and the other hose is cold, there may be a blockage in the heater core.

Why is my heater not turning on?

Other mechanical issues can also cause the heater to remain turned on. A defective check valve.
