Please do a video on a bad electronic throttle body and symptoms and possible testing with a multimeter.

[@golfandhike5598]

Thank you. My blower motor fan runs on high no matter what. Going to change the B.M.

[@jesselucero4221]

Has anyone came across this problem the blower motor stays on high even when set to off position . is it the resistor ?

[@ronnietaylor919]

I'm having the same problem. Did you figure anything out?

[@trentgreenofficial8275]

yes it is

[@rockyourfaceoff2]

My '11 camry blower motor stays on high even with the vehicle off and key out. Please help! Fixed Update: the blower motor has a resister in it. You can replace the $50 blower motor or replace the $25 resister. I recommend replacing the resister because the chinesium motor isn't as good as the original. They're both under the glove compartment (passenger side)

Yeah I replaced my blower motor it turned on for a bit then completely off going to replace the resistor Monday when it comes in, hope that solves my issues.

[@FortniteClipx10]

Did it work?

[@karwinchau4684]

Forgive me if this is a terrible question to ask, how does the blower motor become so dirty? How does debris get into the blower motor?

[@jakeobfolowell5763]

Lack of, or not replacing the cabin air filter.

Have a 2014 Dodge Durango V6. Air totally stopped blowing. Front blower motor fuse has blown several times. I've replaced them with other 40A ones from the fuse box. Then replacing those with non oem 40A ones. Every time the AC starts working fine again. It lasts a few weeks to about a month. Last time I used one of the aftermarket 40A for the blower. Today it blew & the fuse actually melted in its spot. Gonna try to coax it out of there. Someone had mentioned these fuses are directional. The oem ones have theses grooves on one side where the aftermarket ones did not. Not sure if this was a factor. But gonna buy the oem style after I get it out. Don't believe its a short because the problem is not intermittent. Gonna try replacing the blower motor, resistor & plug if it looks burnt. In your opinion or if someone else that's knows these symptoms please chime in, would you say that's a sounds like a sound plan of attack to in all likelihood resolve my issue or is this over kill? Thanks!

[@johnellisonarmadilloconstr7966]

If it melted then that means it’s making a bad connection at the fuse. Same thing happened to me. Dealership said I need a new fuse box under hood. $600 plus labor. Nope I took it out and bent the prongs back together. Fixed it

[@benwilliams5760]

Hi there. If my blower keeps cutting in then out (but I can still change the fan speed when it's decided to work) could it still be a resistor issue? Thanks!

[@easyautofix]

It's possible that the relay is stuck in the "on" position, causing the blower motor to run continuously. Locate the relay in the fuse box and try swapping it with a similar relay to see if that resolves the issue.

[@estebansaint]

Can this also cause the ac compressor not to engage I have this issue but the air is also not getting cold either it works on highest speed. But air doesn’t cool down. Heat works though

[@ding9633]

Did you find an answer?

[@estebansaint]

@@ding9633 Yes I actually did Removed the blower motor to test it with a 9 volt battery after finding out if or not your blower motor works I went back and testing the relay in the fuse box and it ended up being that. Hope this works for you.

[@andrespaz989]

​@estebansaint i have similar problem. My AC doesn't blow cold air so I replaced the AC compressor now I notice it only blows on max setting, but I THINK it did that when the A.C. actually used to blow cold air last summer but I could be wrong. Did yours start to blow cold and on all settings once you replaced the relay?

[@games13458]

If I replace my motor resistance would the Air flow be fixed? Like I fans are blowing but it is just not enough and doesnt really get hot but it does come warm Air out

[@SuperPangloss]

Having the same issue with my 07 Silverado, looking for fix.

[@hsittefchannel8911]

Well could be a blown fuse I would check that first if that’s not the problem I would replace the resistor or at least test the old one that you have if that checks out then I would look into buying a blower motor especially if you swich the speed and nothing happens because usually the resistor or the motor will go out before the switch/ relay dose

[@HaidaWay]

When the fuse for it is in, everything works fine but it won’t turn off even when the car is off. Is this the same kind of issue or something else?

[@spencerderosier6649]

Well done

[@danielpadilla3968]

I have a 2005 Scion tc that AC works fine and randomly after a while the blower won’t kick on unless I tap on the bottom pretty hard and it gets it going fine no problem. All speeds works. Could it still be a bad blower motor resistor?

[@sipmeister3611]

my heat works and the blower works, my a/c sometimes works and other times it does not. when its not working i cannot control my vents it defaults to defrost vent and that is it.

[@HomeOrchard]

I have the same issue on a 2013 Honda CRV. Just manifested today. When the car is hot, that’s when it happens. Everything works normally when the car is cold.

[@dhanssolo]

I got an Audi A4 (B5) that when on heater, the fan speed slowly increases by itself and then pops a fuse. I tried it on a/c and it pops the fuse in less than a minute. I'm guessing its the blower motor resister/relay? Edit: I should also mention the fact that my controls are digital and not a dial. I see the LED screen increase fan speed. The circuit board for the display looks fine and clean. No burn marks. Its a year 2000 vehicle, so my guess is the relay is shorting and it back feeds to the panel thinking the speed changed due to voltage increase?

[@johan_GT4.6]

Theres a short

[@gabriellobo25]

Hey guys. I have a problem. In my 1996 Chevy Tahoe the ac and the air stop coming out . This happened last week . I was driving and using the ac and at first it smelled like something was burnt and then the air stop coming out. I was using the mood wear all the air gets push out to you but when the air shout off I could feel it barely coming out from the vent under the dash . Any ideas on how I can go about fixing it ? Thank you’ll

[@johncastillo2194]

I had this exact issue with an 08 tahoe

[@hsittefchannel8911]

It could be a couple issues the first one I would try and see if there’s a short somewhere that cased the meltdown (if any of the wires are melted that is) if not I would try to replace the blower motor especially if you used it a lot recently and or if it’s never been replaced after checking the fuses ofc

[@pauldeven9121]

[@zacharybinx5859]

I have a 2017 Ram 2500 and on high fan speed it feels like it’s barely on. Would that resistor cause that to happen?

[@easyautofix]

It is possible yes, it could also be your blower motor.

[@socrew7149]

What was the issue

[@nightryder16]

Man I'm stumped and Idk what to do anymore. 😔 I got a 06 crown victoria and the AC would work but barely blow. The high speed level felt like the lowest but each speed would be about a 1/10th faster than the other. Then I turned the knob to heat and it changed to heat..ok fine.. Well no it's not because when I went to put it back on cold it's stuck on heat. I know blend door actuators are a common fail but so is the resistor. I'm lost

[@lsx_doc]

Your issue im willing to bet is blend door over anything

@@hsittefchannel8911 So, there’s the R23 fuse which is related to the AC and there are couple other fuses under the hood, which they all work fine. A mechanic connected a scanner to the car to see if the blower and the climate control receive their power. He left the car for a minute to answer a phone call that suddenly my AC started to work for about 30 seconds and then all the lights on the climate control went off. Don’t you think it’s the climate control ? Because the blower worked for 30 seconds. What do you think ?

my 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor blower motor connections melted to bits, the new one is only getting 0.4 volts could that be a resistor?

It could be that or a blown fuse due to the short that caused the meltdown I would check for shorts first then the fuses/relays responsible then test the resistor

[@accurateexteriorsco]

what if the blower motor is blowing at inconsistent speeds? mine set on any setting will blow but will fluctuate blowing harder and softer...could this be a resistor issue?

Mine started doing the same thing last year. I had to add refrigerant to my system, and the problem went away. The problem just popped back up yesterday. Let us know if you find a fix.

[@hsittefchannel8911]

It could be a bad resistor but it could also be a short somewhere or somewhere I sent making good contact especially if it improves if you hit a bump/jolt the car in some way I would check the connections first then go to test the resistor

I would start with the fuse. It's happened to me before. If it is the fuse, you have to figure out why it went out.
