The blower fan for the climate control runs when the key is turned on, with the engine off; however when the engine is running the blower fan will not come on. The headlight low beams come on with the key turned on and the engine not running, but when the engine is running the low beams will not turn on. High beams work?

SOURCE: no driving or high beam headlights

Hi,

To my knowledge a 2003 Toyota Camry uses a dual filament halogen bulb, either by Osram, Philips or Sylavania. If on the dashboard, the blue indicator lits when the switch is moved to bright or the passlight is engaged but no headlight, then it could jut be busted bulb (or part of it since you still have driving/low beam). In some cases, it could be the relay that supplies power direct to the bulb. At other times, it could be fuse(s) assigned to high beam. At certain instances, it could be also a loose, corroded or burned connector.

Corrective measure for your concern would be to check the 2 bulbs. This is performed by removing the rear covering (rubber or plastic cap) of the headlight assembly from the rear. The bulbs are held in place by a spring clip that needs to be unlatched from the base/holder. Carefully remove the bulb taking care not to touch the glass envelope. The filaments would be readily visible and cut/breaks would be apparent. If determined that one of the filaments (high beam) is open, replace the bulb(s).

If the bulbs prove to be OK, you need to work yourself backwards tracing the wiring harness. After the bulb, check the 3 prong connector for any corrosion or scorching/burnt marks; clean as maybe required. Next to check would be the relay that provides the +12VDC and then the fuse.

I doubt if the dashboard or steering wheel components involve with headlights may be at fault.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards.

Thank you for using FixYa.

SOURCE: blower fan

Sounds like the problem is more with the blower motor assembly itself. The blower motor have micro-proccers built itnto them which comunicate with the control heads and do the actual regulating of the fan motor. Dealers have computers with diagnostic software which allows them to monitor what is happening in the eletronic controls of the vehicle. Electronic diagnostics without the diagnostic software makes it very diffecult to pinpoint the actual item causing the problem.

2015 Chevy Equinox. The center controls for heater and radio stopped working, the screen is black.

Based on your description, it seems like there could be a few possible causes for the issue. Here are some things you can try:

Reset the climate control system: Try resetting the climate control system by turning off the engine, pressing and holding the A/C and recirculation buttons at the same time, turning the ignition to the ON position without starting the engine, continuing to hold the A/C and recirculation buttons for 10 seconds, releasing the buttons, turning the ignition key to the OFF position, and starting the engine.

Check the blower motor: If the fan is only working at one speed, it could be due to a faulty blower motor. You can check the blower motor by turning on the fan and checking if it's blowing air at all speeds. If it's not, then it could be due to a blown fuse, bad relay, resistor or control module malfunction, or a bad electrical connector or broken wire.

Check the HVAC control unit: If resetting the climate control system and checking the blower motor doesn't work, then it could be due to a malfunctioning HVAC control unit. In this case, it's best to take your vehicle to a certified mechanic for further diagnosis and repair .

03 rendezvous heater fan runs with key off

It sounds like you may have a malfunctioning component in your heating system that is causing the fan to continue running even when the car is turned off. Pulling fuse 47, which controls the climate control blower and ignition 3 relay, stopped the fan from running but may have also caused other issues in the system. Replacing the fuse may not fix the problem, it may be necessary to have a mechanic diagnose and repair the specific component causing the issue.

1996 Park Ave, blower motor is intermittent... when it does work, the speed changes when I take a turn. It has Climate Control, so I think the control module is the culprit, but I can't find the darn...

Automatic climate control? The HVAC control module is the part with the buttons that control the heater in the dash.

The first thing I would do is access the blower motor. With key on and/or the engine running wiggle the connector at the blower motor. It you get the same symptom than replace the blower motor. I run into quite a few of these with this symptom.

Why does the heater blower stay on when the car is turned off and the keys removed its a bmw

are you talking about the fan blower inside the car or the fans under the bonnet..? the fans under the bonnet may stay on for a while after the engine is switched off to prevent heatsoak. This is when the engine actually heats up more after switch off due to latent heat within the engine. The fans will remain on until the coolant temperature has fallen and stabilised, then the fans will stop. If the blower fan inside the car keeps running, this may be a feature on the car to assist with heat soak but I would think this is more like a faulty power relay or fan controller if the car has climate control..In this case, my advice would be to consult a qualified autoelectrician.

88 cadillac deville, ac blower fan wont shut off, even when car is turned off and key removed. I tried disconnecting the battery to reset the system but it still runs when battery reconnected. Also, car...

Ralph,
Most common cause of this is the blower fan (proper name for the fan you refer to) continuing to run is a shorted out Electronic Climate Control Module. This solid state device replaces the older style fan speed resistor block (at about 4 times the price) This unit is found on the top of the HVAC box under the hood. (HVAC means heating, ventilation and air conditioning) The HVAC box is found on the passenger side of the firewall. Look behind the A/C's accumulator. It will have an electrical wiring plug on top of it. It will be fastened to the HVAC box with a few 7mm hex head screws. Very easy to change.
FYI, do yourself a favor and replace the blower fan motor at the same time. The Electronic Climate Control Module usually fails because the motor is drawing to many amps of current. This is because it's bushings are worn out or the brushes are worn out.
This is very common on Cadillacs and Buicks.
Charlie
PS Not sure why car won't start. Either you drained the battery or blew a fuse which controls starting the engine. Need more info regarding the "no start" condition.
