My fuse in the main electrical box keeps tripping. It's the fuse for the house lights. How can I check what is doing it? Thanks in advance. Big L

is it only blowing the fuse when the fan is turned on. if it is then the motor may have gone..... if not the fan turn off all mains leaving the lighting on. and turn on lights one by one. if this does not blow the fuse. turn on as meany lights as you can until it blows. if it does this then the fuse or the trip switch is faulty and will need to be replaced. but if it does it only with the fan light or using the fan then the motor will be at fault. could be the fan starter c66 part or the motor its self.

2007 Honda Shadow VLX Deluxe instrument fuse keeps blowing

If there has been any modifications to the wiring, extra lighting, etc., the fuse may be too small. If you can manipulate the wiring where it has been twisting for more than 10 years, you might find the issue. Look where the wiring comes off the handlebars and goes through the front of the frame.

My cooling fan fuse on my Honda 2007 VFR keeps blowing. I replace the fuse and the fan runs for several cycles but eventually blows again. The fan appears to be running fine with now apparent slow down or...

The fan motor can be going bad. BUT, check the wiring to the fan along the frame for rubs or brake in the insulation and check the plug for a burnt connection. Any loose connection can cause enough heat to blow the fuse. Check all this. Hope this helps Fix Ya up.

Heater fan works for a while then cuts off till it cools down



What can go wrong with a blower motor?
There are several things that may cause your blower motor to stop working. The simplest cause would be a blown fuse. If you replace the fuse and it quickly blows again, then you probably have an electrical short. Disconnected wires on the exterior of the blower motor can also cause it stop working, and if your blower motor gets dirty, it can get clogged or muddy which keeps the fan blades from spinning.

How do I test my blower motor?
When you are troubleshooting your blower motor, it is best to start by running the air conditioning or the heater to see if you can hear the sound of the fan. If you can hear the fan, it could be clogged or corroded with dirt. If you do not hear the fan, then you may have a bad resistor, blown fuse, or a loose wire. Next, you should replace any blown fuses in your car's fuse panel and try to start the blower motor again. If another fuse blows right away, you have an electrical short. If it doesn't blow out and the motor is still silent, then something else is wrong. In the case where the fuse lasts for a little while as the fan spins but then the fuse blows again, that usually means you need to replace the brushes on the motor. Finally, you can pull the motor out and visually inspect it for loose wires. If you don't see any and still want to test, try hooking it up to the battery to see if the motor will start. If all these tests still find you with a dead blower motor, it's definitely time to replace it.

How do I replace it?
Usually located under your vehicle's instrument panel, the blower motor can be removed and replaced. You'll need to disconnect the blower motor connector and remove the retaining screws holding it into place. Detach the fan retainer clip from the motor shaft that's located in the center of the blower wheel. You may need to save that piece if you are not replacing the whole motor. Inspect your new motor to ensure nothing is broken and the blades can properly spin. Re-attach the fan retainer clip, the retaining screws, and the connector so you can test your new blower motor out.

I replaced a relay for the cooling fan, when the fan came back on it blew the relay. Does that mean the fan motor is bad?

Do you mean the fan fuse? I ask because relay's don't just "blow" . If it is in fact the fuse that is blowing... with the car off and fan off try turning the blade. If it's very difficult to turn, then yes your problem is in the fan motor. If it's not difficult to turn it could still have a problem and be pulling too many amps. You can hook up an ammeter in line to the fan and see how much amps the fan is taking. If it's close to the amperage rating on the fuse it is likely the cause of the fuse blowing.

I have a 2007 chevy cobalt.I have replaced the wiper motor and it still blowes the 10 amp fuse.when i replaced the motor it worked for a day then it blew the fuse again.

Did you lube all your pivot points & linkage joints while you were at it, if not, that may help. Spray some lube at arm where it pivots near base as well. Are you sure they are the proper size blades, as in someone didn't decide to install bigger or double bladed or similar by chance did they, which would cause more load on motor.
