2006 Chevy Colorado blower and resistor replacement

[@gregl4453]

obviously not a production level video. but this was EXTREMELY helpful. thank you for not editing out the part in between the steps.

[@gregl4453]

also my dad does that whistling sound you made at 6:35. i wonder if it's a hispanic thing 😅

[@aaronmobilemechanictv7841]

🤣 that an old man whistle lol my grandpa used to do it all the time.

[@gregbushta3086]

I’m having the same trouble with that back bolt. Persistence will be the key to overcome the frustration. Thanks for the video.

[@dwhites3813]

Me too!! Got all srcews out except tht one, why would they put it right there out of all places!

[@discmotoslots]

i knew my blower motor was bad because it was noisy! but my fan only worked on the 'high' setting. did not know that i needed the 'resistor'. thanks for that!

[@aaronmobilemechanictv7841]

You have to stay positive all the time !!!

[@elpeludosaicam]

Yes go ahead and put new resistor and sometimes you going to need to put new wire harness and they will going to work all the speed levels. I have it 06 canyon and i have the some problem like you and now is working good 👍🏼

[@dwhites3813]

Thanks for the instructions, i ordered the parts because my blower stop working been when i got frustrated because of that back screw i gave up for another day, went to turn on my heater everything started working again. But will keep the new blower & resistor just in case it goes completely out .. thanks

Why didn't you replace the burned wiring harness?

[@esco7106]

What if the blue gray wire that's in the plug that goes into the resistor has gotten hot and a little melted

[@2012macato]

Thank you bro I have the same problem with my Colorado 06 now I know how to fix it...it looks easy to fix it 👍

[@aaronmobilemechanictv7841]

I appreciate 🙏🏻 you watching my video it help you with your vehicle.

[@ovx23]

Does this also accour if the ac or heat just dont turn on as well?

[@nikipizza9983]

How did u get the 3rd screw out ... u left that out and thats where we are stuck

[@aaronmobilemechanictv7841]

You need to use quarter drive socket set

[@ViaAvione]

Well Done! Thank you for sharing

[@buildmanepic3850]

Whenever I would go over bumps the ac would turn off and on sometimes on the thrid settings

[@aaronmobilemechanictv7841]

Check your connection make sure it not blown to your blower

[@buildmanepic3850]

@@aaronmobilemechanictv7841 Well most of the time the highest setting would only work and none of the others I replaced the resistor and I haven't had problems ever since

Swivel extension for back bolt. 5.5mm or 7/32 socket

[@jbook-fundsfoxbodys9403]

Thanks my 2010 stopped working today. Blower was making noise now doesn’t work on any setting

[@aaronmobilemechanictv7841]

Change the blower and the resistor and you will be good 👍🏼

[@RayGates-r9x]

The screw to the right and back will seem next to impossible to get to good. The way I got to it was as fallows. Take a 4 inch 3/8 extension add a 3/8 to 1/4 adapter then add a 1/4 extension then add a 1/4 swivel then add the 5.5mm socket. Do not put a rachet or anything on the end, turn it with your hand and fingers, this set up allows you to get it loose without a rachet.

[@thelastchance7327]

That back screw is the biggest pain in the ass. How did you end up getting it off? I’m stumped.

[@overyonderjustapiece]

You need a wobble piece and a 3” extension. Works best like that.

[@naku4u2]

Thank you for the info because i have the same problem with my 2009 GMC Canyon

[@frankquimby8402]

The connector for the resistor hand a burnt spot in the middle it should have been replaced also

[@duaneulman9915]

Thank you

[@bruceperkins2921]

thanks! i think i can do this repair on mine

[@aaronmobilemechanictv7841]

You need a you need a 1/4 Drive swivel

[@michmvp]

Would have been easier had you removed the glove box.

[@richtoth1672]

Colorados are known to have Lot of BAD GROUNDS, UNDER HOOD. IN JUNKTION BOX. REPLACING MY MOTOR, AND RESISTOR BANK, DID NOT HELP. GROUND WAS OPEN.

[@russpack6757]

How did you get the back bolt out? You had problems then cut out the scene where you got it out. Only reason I watched your video is to see how you get back bolt out. You cheated.

[@aaronmobilemechanictv7841]

Yeah maybe got frustrated through the camera finally I got it off and record it again sorry

[@johnhitchcock3848]

Thank you
