A blower motor not working could be caused by several factors, including a blown fuse, a malfunctioning relay, or a failed motor itself. If reverse polarity is applied, it can result from wiring issues or incorrect connections. This can lead to the motor running in the opposite direction or potentially damaging the motor's components. Always ensure proper wiring and check for any electrical faults before troubleshooting further.

What is an example of reverse polarity?

Reverse polarity means connecting a power source, or polarised componenet, with the positive and negative poles the wrong way round. If the positive and negative supply is connected the wrong way round in electronic devices, it usually causes damage, because semiconductors are sensitive to polarity. Sometimes protection is provided, so that reverse polarity stops the device from working without causing damage. Connecting a diode (or rectifier) in reverse, will block the flow of current, without causing damage and is useful in protecting circuits from reverse polarity. In some consumer electronics (especially CB Radios) the power input has a recitifier across the 12v supply. If it is wired correctly, the rectifier is in reverse polarity, does not conduct and allows the radio to work. If you reverse the polarity of the power supply, the rectifier is now in full conduction, across the supply, causing a dead short. This shunts any power away from the radio and blows the fuse in the line, thus protecting it.

What causes the reverse to stop working in your car?

Most likely the reverse band (in an automatic) - Also note that some of these cars used an anti-fill/drain-back valve in the valve body, this can cause a delay in how long it takes for reverse or low to start working.

What causes the blower on a 2001 Chevy Silverado to work on high but not on low?

the blower fan rheostat usually located in blower box is like a resistor that draws energy from the blower fan supply to slow it down and there is a high speed fan relay for the fastest speed. So your rheostat is not working
