I can almost guarantee you your motor is fine.

Where to find the blower motor resistor for my AC heater?

Where do I find the blower motor resistor for my AC Heater motor. The motor stopped working without making any noise, it just died. I already checked all the fuses, and before I attempt to replace the motor I want to test the resistor, but I need to find it first. Any ideas please?

Why is my AC heater resistor not working?

I checked all the fuses of the under-hood and under-dash fuse boxes, and it just had burnt the number 12 (10A) and number 29 (20A). I changed them, but the blower motor did not work, and the Power transitor (resistor) did not heat. I changed the blower motor and the Power transistor (resistor) and they do not work.

What happens when you replace a blower motor resistor?

In this case, the heater and air conditioning system may still function normally pushing the cold or hot air out of the vent beside the speed. The resistor needs to be replaced with a new one in order to restore its function. Another common symptom of a faulty blower motor resistor is that the blower motor only works at slow-speed.

Where is the heater blower motor located?

A blower motor is the motor that turns the fan to blow air through your heater. The blower motor is typically located behind or below your dashboard, next to the heater core.

Where is the blower motor resistor located?

The blower motor resistor is located under the dash on the right hand (passenger) side. It’s near the firewall, just below the windshield.

Why is my furnace blower not working?

One of the most common problems with furnace fans is a bad blower relay . The first thing to do is check the relay or voltage from the board. If no voltage is recorded, you will have to replace the board or the relay. If there is a battery, check if it is working properly. This is another common reason behind faulty blower fans.

Where is the fuse for the heater fan?

Electric fan heaters usually have a thermal fuse close to the heating element(s) to prevent overheating damage in the event of fan failure or air intakes becoming blocked, and a tip-over switch to shut the heater off when the fan outlet is not in the required orientation.
