Apply 12 volts directly to the motor. If it runs, it is the resistor pack, or the switch. If it doesn't it is the motor. I hope you have checked the fuse.

Where is blower motor resistor on a 1999 Olds Intrigue located?

Disconnect the battery negative cable. !!!Power is still on when ignition switch off!!! I have Olds Intrigue 2000. Blower control resistor (Controller) located behind theblower motor. Very close to the firewall.Using 5.5 mm. socket remove the blower first. (3 screws are holding the blower)Using the same socket (5.5 mm) remove one visible screw which holds the resistor.You will have to loosen two other screws, located between the resistor and firewall. You don't need to remove them completely, just loosen them! And it is a pain in the neck to get there!!!Resistor slides out when rear screws are loose.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------AnswerThe resistor is under the glove box behind the blower motor. The motor is actually connected to the resisitor and the other connection on the resisitor comes from the climate control and relays. The part is right against the fire wall making it hard to get to. You need a socket and much patience to remove it. Good Luck.


99 sunfire heater only works on full speed?

1) Check the blower motor, make sure it is not making any weird noises.2) Check the blower motor resistor, its located next to the motor. It is what controls the lower speeds of the motor. You can try to find one at the junkyard.


What is the use of ceramic resistor?

there is less loss of energy through heat, ergo making a more efficient resistor.


How do you replace a blower motor resistor ina 2003 cheverolet Monte Carlo ls?

:The resistor is quite difficult to remove since it is butt-up againt the firewall. A 5.5mm univeral socket is needed. You may also need to cut away some of the firewall insulation. Laying on your back in an odd position isalso required.- TechJK -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The blower motor resistor is mounted next to or behind the blower motor. The blower motor is located under the passenger�s side of the dash panel, attached to the bottom of the intake unit.Q: Is the resistor a rectangular metal plate held in the duct by two screws, just to the left of the blower, or is this something else?Yes it is that metal plate, Easy way to check it is by using multi-meter and making sure everything is continuous.. or all the connections are continuous.Addtional : On my 1995 Nissan Maxima the blower resistor is underneath the glovebox. (You do NOT have to remove the glovebox!) The are 2 screws holding it on. It's not a metal plate on mine, but a approx 3 inch long and 3/4 inch wide plastic connector with 4 wide connectors inside. It is held on by 2 screws, each going through a double hole plastic screw plate. When you remove it, you'll see it is a metal plate that extends about 1.5 inches inside the blower box. The part costs between $29 and $39 dollars at autopart stores and should only take about 2 minutes to replace. All you do is remove the 2 screws, unplug the bad resistor, plug in the new one and refasten the 2 screws.


Why does my 2004 Chevy Colorado blower motor only works on high speed only?

My 04 does the same thing, never used to, it's an intermittent problem for me. Start with the resistor panel replacement (located by passenger firewall), if that doesn't work, its' probably the blower motor itself. or ChevyGrief writes: The problem sounds more like the blower motor resistor connector and/or blower motor resistor. I replaced the cable that had burn marks on two terminals, making a poor connection. The problem has not returned since last July. Purchased from RockAuto GM Parts list: Resistor - p/n 15218254 $8.59* Connector - p/n 15306069 $30.70* Wiring harness - p/n 89019124 $20 * or ssgjurista wrote: It's easier to replace with the glovebox out of the way. gmpartsdirect has the harness and resistor as a package deal. Their part number is PK15218254. or 2005 Colorado 4 x 4 , my fan would only work on high (4) as well, for a while 1-2&3 worked intermittently the stopped. I found on my truck that the wire harness for the blower is in a spot where passengers hit it with their feet. I could wiggle this connection an it would work on all settings again, I fixed it by making the connection better and electrical tape- I hope your fix is as simple.


How can you obtain warranty on a Malibu suncatcher solar light?

Malibu will still help with warranty even though they quite making them.


I changed my blower motor resistor on my 2001 Pontiac grand prix twice and its gone out both times It will work for a day then go out what is my problem now do I need to replace the motor it self?

It Sounds As If Your Motor Is Going Bad, Like The Bearings Are Going Out. Causing It To Take More Current To Run And Burning Up The Resistor. You May Also Have A Wire Not Making A Good Connection Which Would Cause It To Draw Excessive Amperage. I Would Check The Wiring Pluged Into The Motor To See If All Is Well. Then Proceed To The Blower Good Luck

What could cause the heater blower motor not to work on a 2002 Trailblazer?

If it works but not on all speeds or is almost making the car stall at idle if you turn the a/c on at a light Than its probably the fan motor resistor pack its $25-$30 at autozone and real easy and fast to replace.


How dimer switsh work?

It works by sending the current through a resistor. As you twist the dimmer switch it changes the length of the resistor and the longer the resistor the more it inhibits the current. So at full brightness the resistor has been totally bypassed as you turn the light down the contact moves further around the resistor making it longer.


Where is the blower resistor on a 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue?

: Under the passenger side of the dash. Remove the panel, the resistor is forward of the blower motor, butt-up against the firewall. Quite difficult to get to- even with the special 5.5mm swivel socket.- TechJKDisconnect the battery negative cable. !!!Power is still on when ignition switch off!!! I have Olds Intrigue 2000. Blower control resistor (Controller) located behind theblower motor. Very close to the firewall.Using 5.5 mm. socket remove the blower first.

You don't need to remove them completely, just loosen them! And it is a pain in the neck to get there!!!Resistor slides out when rear screws are loose.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------right side just above the carpet under the glove box.I am not sure about the 2000, but the 1998 model was an easy fix. Simply remove the carpeted upholstery with an upholstery button removal tool (don't forget to remove the interior light from it). Then, using a 7/32" deep-well socket, remove the blower motor (3 screws total). Be sure to support the fan while removing the motor since the screws break easily. Next, remove the bracket that has a wire tie on it which ties the cable for the blower motor and remove the wire tie (it slides apart left/right, btw). Carefully disconnect the blower motor from the blower motor resistor. Disconnect the remaining wire harness from the blower motor resistor. Using the same 7/32" deep-well socket, remove the screw closest to you and LOOSEN the back 2 screws. You will need to press the socket up to each screw since the rubber on the firewall is extremely close to the blower motor resistor. Once the resistor has been removed, simply slide the new on into place and install the screw closest to you. Now tighten up the back 2 screws. One of the screws is at a rather wicked angle so keep trying. Now replace all of the parts that you removed and you are done.While you are at it, the fan control switch was extremely corroded in our car. The switch can be removed by pulling out the center console (2 9/32" screws on top of the arm rest). The switch comes apart by working each of the plastic tabs until it comes apart. Use some emery paper to clean up the contact surface.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I also replaced the resistor on my 2000 Intrigue. I used 7/32 deep-well socket I bought from Sears and a flex-cable ratchet. The front screw was easy to remove, but the rear screws seemed to be impossible to reach with the firewall rubber covering the screw area. I then pressed the firewall rubber with screw driver and the rubber stayed pressed. And the bottom screw became visible making it easy to loosen. With the rubber pressed away I could stick in my finger and could feel the top screw. With several attempts I could loosen the top screw and the resistor came out. When I replaced a new resistor I rotated the rear screws so that the resistor just slides in, and tightened the front screw. I left the rear screws untightened just in case I replace it again.I was able to replace the resistor without removing the blower motor and even though less safe I made it without removing the negative cable from the battery.


Why you use resistor transistor logic?

Resistor transistor logic isnt really used very often these days. that is to say it is old tech. the reason resistor transistor logic used to be used so much was because the cost of making a resistor was much cheaper than making a transistor, the high costs of other technologies such as TTL was prohibitive. RTL is used these days as a very cheap option and as an alternative to TTL.
