SOURCE: A/C Heater blower fan does not cycle through all speeds

Yes it is the blower Motors Resistor board. It is up behind the blower motor, just under the glove box. You have to remove the black KICK panel with its two "Push Pins" that will break too. There are 3 screws holding that resistor board in, the back two are a bear to get to. Good luck.

SOURCE: heat/ac blower motor works on high. intermittent on other speeds.

Check the blower resistor pack - usually located in the heater air ducting in the blower fan airflow. Check for loose connections and open circuit resistors on the unit.
If speed 4 works always, its unlikely to be the blower motor ground connection.

SOURCE: Heater/AC Fan does not work in our 1998 Buick Century

Fan will be under dash on passengers side , Removing glove box might be needed, Gm also uses a blower resister ro control fan speeds. First check your fuse and then check and make sure your getting 12 volts to the terminal at the blower, You could have a blown fuse, a bad switch, or a bad resister , if your getting voltage to blower motor then most likely it will be the motor. These are not to difficult to change. I hope this helps, please be aware I can only guess at what the problem is from my past experience.

Alot of people have the same problem with the fan switch and blown bulbs. There really is no fix for this. Jeep really screwed up when designing the heater control assembly. The cheapest solution is to buy another unit off Ebay. Can always go to the dealer but be ready to PAY for there mistakes.

My mother in laws 2002 century blower only works on high..

It is not the blower motor.
On the 2002 model, I am showing an HVAC control module and a blower control processor. The control module handles the temp control and blower speed, and the processor contains the resistor for slower blower speeds.
Which component did you replace ?

You need to get the blower motor resistor replaced.This is your problem.It is located by the blower motor.There will be a connector from the blower to the resistor.The resistor controls the fan speeds when you turn the knob on the control head.The blower motor is on the passengers side under the dash.Hope this helps.Good luck.

My heater stop working suddenly on my car. It just stop working completely and all together ... Air condition and everything.... How can I troubleshoot the problem? It was working fine one minute and then...

I assume you mean that the blower motor quit running. Did you try it to see if it will run on any speed? If it won't run on high, but runs on the lower speeds, it is most likely a bad blower motor high relay. If it will not blow on any speed, it could be the blower motor fuse (In which case, you must find out why it blew or it will only happen again.) or the blower motor itself. Buick Century is known to burn the connector at the blower motor. There is a replacement connector available in the aftermarket to repair this. I personally recommend replacing the blower motor also if it is a burned connector because the blower motor is usually partially shorted internally, which is what causes the connector to get hot and burn.

My ac only blows on high

Blower motor resistors or speed selector switch.
There are no resistors for high speed its straight B+ to the blower motor. You know the motor is good. So the onky two items left are resistors and switch.
