Earlier today I had no motor speeds...later I had LO,1,2...no high speed....How do I fix this?
When the blower motor ages , it starts drawing more current/amperage because the brushes and internal parts of motor are worn , this increase in amperage draw causes the whole circuit to heat up to a higher point than what is usually seen when the circuit has new parts , As the name of the part Resistor pack indicates , it is made up of resistors ,,,the excessively high current passing through the resistors cause them to overheat , and ends up burning them out , it is the same reason the connector gets cooked . Chances are very likely that if you do not replace the motor that you will end up replacing the resistor again , sometimes it can be in as little time as a couple of months , maybe a little longer than that , The best thing you can do is replace the blower for 29 bucks with lifetime warranty , and replace that connector , before your resistor blows again , the moving of the plyg to an angle to get a good connection is most likely the connector red wire not making a full good electrical connection .....you may hit a hard bump or series of bumps this winter and your high speed stops working again ,,,halfpick said:It was the resistor pack...also found connector was cooking alittle. checked with a meter still good,but had to move plug to an angle to get good connection...It works now, must be a design error???
Advance auto is where I got mineBig Dac With Fries said:Where the hell are you guys finding these $30 blower motors with lifetime warrantys?
EDIT: Ebay, that's where.
