Fan blower will run only on 4

The fan blower will run only on 4, you have to leave it on because if you turn it off you can't turn it back on, but it just comes on when it decides to. If the blower happens to go off so do the headlights and then the head lights have to be turned on manually. A new relay switch was put on and it worked great for about 3 weeks and then it stopped working right again.

I have a 2002 Acura. While driving yeaterday, with the AC on high and fan on high, the fan turned off. Will not come on even heat mode, no fan at all. I checked 4 different fuses and they were all g

The fan is located behind the glove box, above the passengers feet. The 2 most common failures are the blower motor and the blower resistor. This system is a switch to ground setup. Unplug the blower plug and see which wire is hot, it should always be with the key on. With the car running and the fan switch on, hit the blower with the palm of your hand. If it comes on, it is bad. the brushes wear out. Also you can unplug the resistor, and ground the output wire at the blower, or resister. to see if it works.

2008 navigator fan blows high as long as the car is started and won't turn off.

You will need to replace the blower motor speed control module/resistor, it is burned out. it is located next to the blower motor.

01 grand.prix ac fan switch only works on high. has a duel temp controller when you turn fan off the only way fan comes back on is to move the temp controller levers

Hi!!
When the Blower Motor Resistor (controls blower speeds) goes bad, the blower motor works only on HIGH SPEED. REPLACE IT.
BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR Removal & Installation
  • Disconnect negative battery cable.
  • Remove right lower instrument panel insulator panel.
  • Disconnect blower resistor connector located behind right side of dash.
  • Remove blower resistor screws and blower resistor.
To install, reverse removal procedure
Good Luck!! A HELPFUL - 4 THUMBS - rating for this solution would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for using FixYa!!

The HVAC blower fan on my 2001 Pontiac Aztec stopped working on settings 1-3 several weeks ago. Last week it stopped working at setting 4 and today it stopped working all together. What is the most likely...

the blower not working on settings 1-3 is the blower motor resistor. this limits the power provided to the blower motor itself to change the speed. at setting 4 it is getting full power. since it quit on 4 also, i would still say the resistor needs to be replaced first, then see if the blower comes back. you may also need a blower motor. if you have a voltmeter you can just turn the switch to 4 and see if the motor is still getting 12 volts. if it is and doesn't run, it needs a blower motor too. if it's not, then its just the resistor

Buick Century 2001 blower motor

Your blower resistor is bad. It is mounted under the passenger side dash behind and to the left of the blower motor. These things burn out short out causing the fan to run constantly and then they just fry and shut down the fan. It is a hard little ****** to get to and you need 1/4 inch ratchet, 6 inch extension a 1/4 inch universal joint and a 5 mm shallow socket and lots of patients. LOL
