What can happen when a blower motor resistor goes bad is that the motor will run and then suddenly stop running on a regular basis. Sometimes the blower fan will not turn on and cause the motor to overheat.

What is the purpose for a blower motor resistor?

It it used to regulate the blower motors speed. If this goes bad, you will completely lose function of a certain speed, or overall. If this happens, you will need to replace the switch and or board.


If the motor blower on a 2002 Ford van is no longer working how can you fix it?

First check the fuse to see if it is blown. If the fuse is good, then it is either the blower motor switch, blower motor Resistor Pack, or the Blower Motor itself. It can also be bad wiring. Apply 12 volts directly to the blower motor to see if it is good. If it is good and the wiring it OK, then it is the switch or resistor pack. I would bet on the Resistor Pack being the culprit. The switch rarely goes bad..

What is a blower?

There isn't a transistor but there is a blower motor resistor. The purpose of it is to control fan speeds. Normally when it goes bad it will let the fan run on high only. It is located under the dash on the passenger's side near the blower motor.
