Where is the heater blower motor resistor loacated on a 1996

1996 chevy pickup 2500 fwd. Fan started acting up, lost 1,2,3 speeds and now only have 4th. It's a plow truck and I have to have my defrosters LOL

    Thanks Spankie09 Being that this is a plow truck and I am out in cold weather a bunch of times in a pinch I have kicked the black plastic housing under the passenger side dash and the fan would come on and work on any speed I wanted. Not any more just high(4) Does this lean you toward switch or resistor.

    Thanks again

It is under the dash next to where your passenger feet would be on the floor board.right above a person feet on the pasenger side. Also sounds like the switch in the dish is going out, if only working on high (4). I would replace switch first. Get one out of junk yard at half price.

    The switch in the dash, behind the control panel.

2000 Chevrolet Impala blower motor work from 1-4 but not on 5th speed why?

The blower motor relay is energized when the Blower Motor Control is set to the High position. This removes the blower motor resistors from the circuit and battery voltage is then applied directly from the HVAC BLO fuse (RH IP Accessory Wiring Junction Block) to the blower motor though the relay switch contacts. The blower motor then runs at high speed.

HVAC Blower Controls Circuit Description
The blower motor is a variable speed motor. The motor operates at a higher rate when voltage is increased to the maximum level.
The blower motor resistors reduce the voltage supplied from the A/C FAN fuse (LH IP Accessory Wiring Junction Block) when the blower control is set at low and medium speeds (speeds 1-4). The blower motor relay is energized when the Blower Motor Control is set to the High position. This removes the blower motor resistors from the circuit and battery voltage is then applied directly from the HVAC BLO fuse (RH IP Accessory Wiring Junction Block) to the blower motor though the relay switch contacts. The blower motor then runs at high speed.

Trying to find the relay switch to my heater on my 1994 Chevy 2500 Silverado?

There might not be any relay, Mary - it might be wired directly from the switch to the blower motor, although the lower blower speeds may go through a speed-reducing resistor pack to get there. If that's true, the resistor pack will be somewhere in the heater plenum, probably near the passenger's foot area.

If the blower doesn't run at all, check for voltage at the blower motor with a meter or test light, switch in all positions, keyswitch ON. The blower motor may have failed.

Heater fan stop working in a 1996 sierra truck

did all speeds stop working or does it have high only?
if none of the speeds are working then you need to verify you are getting voltage to the motor, if you have voltage the motor is out, no voltage check the heater control relay.
if it blows only on high then its the blower motor resistor located in the duct work under the dash around the glove box area
