I have a 2002 Pontiac Sunfire. My fan stopped producing air (hot and cold altogether) - from the lowest setting to highest setting does not work.

HI,
sounds like a the heater/ blower fan relay went bad. Unless you're mechanically-inclined you'll need a mechanic to install the replacement.

Do a Google search for the relay or blower motor and/or search for a Chevy Cavalier (same car) forum to find a fix - if you want to tackle it yourself.

GL,
TD

    What about: Engine Compartment Fuse Block on the Owner's Guide show's two fuses listed: BLO (Heater and A/C Blower) and HEATER BLOWER (Heater and A/C Blower)?

    Good Idea! Check those first.

SOURCE: my 1998 pontiac sunfire is getting hot but not overheating

the fan may be bad but you can find the hot side of the plug and run a hot to the battery and see if the fan comes on. if it doesent you know you have a bad fan if it does you can run a wire to the fuse panel so that it comes on when the car does and shuts off when you shut the car off

SOURCE: 2002 Pontiac Montana, No Heat, I put the temp control on

the cabel from the heat dial to the heater box behind the dash could be snaped or jamed thus not opperating the lever which operates the flap which open and closes the heat box next to the matrix. or if your coolant is brown in colour it could be your matrix is clogged with sedament and needs flushing out. or it could be your water pump not pumping coolant round your engine or it could be a knackerd thermostat i hope these will help you id start with the easyest first thermostat

Heat stopped working in 2000 pontiac sunfire

With blower on high and tempature to max heat check to see if you have good air flow in all mode selections (defrost, vent, floor etc.). If so and you still have no heat then check heater core hose going from engine to inside car to heater core with vehicle running and coolant tempature about half on guage. If both hoses are hot and coolant in radiator/overflow bottle is full then hot cold blend door is stuck in cold position. If coolant level is low you will get no heat, check coolant level first.

02 sunfire overheating

make sure you have radiator full of coolant
run the car to operating temperature
check the operation of the cooling fan
feel the upper radiator hose and the lower radiator hose. they both should be hot.
if one is cold then you may have a bad thermostat or restricted flow
if cooling fan does not come on when engine is hot then you have bad cooling fan switch, relay or motor.
good luck

Why would my 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee only blow luke-warm to cold air when the fan is on high? First the heat went on the highest setting, so i used the second highest. Then it started to coll as...

Sounds like you need a blower motor resistor located down under dash on pass side next to blower motor. This is a comon problem and I have changed many of them. thats just the fan speed problem. Ive seen the blend doors break easily on those jeeps. thats inside the heaer core box and moves the flap from hot air to cold air. If it is stuck halfway -or mostly to cold- you may only get luke warm air. If they had the heater core out-maybe they possibly broke it.

I need to locate the bleeder valve for a '96 pontiac sunfire, it appears to have air in the cooling system which is causing it to overheat.

Did you replace the thermostat? If not replace it. Is the cooling fan running? If not check the fuse & thermal relay. If it has a bleeder valve it will be located on the highest part of the cooling system. It may not have one. With the engine cold remove the radiator cap. Make sure the radiator is full. Set the heater control to Hot. Start the engine and watch for escaping air bubbles. Keep the radiator full until you see no more air escaping. If it continues to overheat repeat the process.

2002 Honda Odyssey fan only works at high speed. The A/C compress

Usually when the blower fan only operates on hi speed, its because of a failed blower motor resistor. You still have hi speed because on hi, the power going to the blower motor goes directly to it, as opposed to the lower speeds, when the power is routed through the resistor, thus lowering the voltage, which in turn lowers the speed of the fan. The resistor is usually located near the blower motor itself, under the hood back near the firewall.

Air conditioner on 2002 Pontiac blowing hot air, although freon is not low...also makes a clicking noise.

Take it to a garage and have them evacuate the system and refill with refrigerant. you have air and non condensibles in the refrigerant system.

1999 Pontiac Sunfire AC problem

Check to see if your system is charged. there is a pressure plug with a green cap near the right side motor mount. If you have pressure then check fuze under hood and see if compressor is kicking in. If not charged it will not kick in.
