FORD Blower Motor Resistor Replacement 09-14 F150

[@willsam6243]

I have the exact problem. Great video straight to the point. Thanks for the part number will be ordering mine today.

[@Dhi-fe5eu]

Great video. Thank you for showing us how to disconnect the connector. They break really easy if you not sure. Like the ignition coils/wires. Broke one of the 8.

[@bearlyexplored]

Thanks for watching!

[@MEdney511]

Just replaced mine in a 2011 f150. Quick and easy thanks to your video

[@bearlyexplored]

Glad it helped

[@auaiao9]

Impressive. You save yourself a lot of money doing the work yourself.

[@bearlyexplored]

Thanks! You really do save a lot of money when you are able to do things like this yourself

[@whunt29708]

Thanks for your video. It helped me get my A/C working again in my 2013 F150 STX V8.

[@bearlyexplored]

You're welcome!

[@JPAutoService]

It's amazing that the transistor you got actually worked temporarily. Most are bad brand new out of the box. I got 3 bad transistors in a row from bonerzone for a 2014 f150. Put a motorcraft one in and it's all good.

[@bearlyexplored]

I’m on number four now

[@moderngunguy3666]

My OEM one that I bought failed on me within a day.

[@JiNKA]

Bro same!

[@jandj002]

Thanks for the video, I stopped by autozone today and picked up the part, it worked!

[@bearlyexplored]

Great to hear!

[@williamvarnado6467]

Thank you for the instructions, I just changed mine and it’s working great!!!

[@bearlyexplored]

I’m glad it was able to help you, thank you for the comment

[@humpdayfitness9707]

I had a different model 04 Ford that had the resistor located in the engine bay, much less convenient than behind the glove box. I needed to replace that resistor multiple times - I presume that they were just poor quality replacement parts? Anyway, heading off to the parts store now to get a replacement resistor for my 2013 F150. Thanks for the video.

[@bearlyexplored]

That was the issue in my case

[@larrybrockwell9659]

Thank you so much for showing the pig tail connector, wiring colors. Mine burned up and was replaced with a harness with all black wires.

[@bearlyexplored]

You’re welcome, I am glad this video was able to help you. Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment

Luxury package. Sounds so luxurious!

Thanks so much. Today, my 2013 FX4 just started doing its own thing. So I will try this fix. Hope it works! 👍🏻

I have a 2013 expedition. My AC blower wouldn’t work I replaced the resistor. I noticed that it took several seconds once turning the AC on before the blower started blowing. Something seemed a little off. A year later the blower stopped working again. I replaced the resistor again, and this time the fan blower motor, it works great. So when you replace the resistor replace the blower motor. The third screw on the motor in the back is a pain in the butt to get off. I recommend a small skinny person do the job.

[@bearlyexplored]

Thanks for the advice 😊

[@IzzyJay73]

It’s hilarious to watch these videos and hear how easy it is to remove two simple bolts. However you never see one of these guys actually remove the part. The space behind the glove box is limited. The bolts are not easy to get at and you have very limited space. Not to mention several other wire harnesses. It’s real simple just 2 bolts my friend!!

[@bearlyexplored]

Socket wrench with an extension and or knuckle might help you out more

[@davidw9694]

If you have big hands, it's difficult no matter what you use.

[@rdlangston13]

Did your blower motor still run if you turned off the climate control? I have a 15 expedition and the blower motor runs on medium all the time. Won’t go up or down and if you turn off the climate control it stays on.

[@moderngunguy3666]

Yes that's the same problem It will run whether it's on or off

[@joshuah.9687]

Also, if it stays on only 1 speed, that's a bad resistor

[@bearlyexplored]

Yes it ran even when I turned the system off

[@slowst3561]

My truck blow like medium speed at full speed settings could this be it too?

[@bearlyexplored]

That’s what mine did once, I changed this out and it fixed it. It could solve your issue, I can’t say for sure though.

[@davidsonpeguero2760]

I have a question. So a while back my blower motor stopped working so I unplugged it and plugged it back in and work fine for atleast a year. Came up north started blowing hot air on passenger side and cold air on my side. Now it’s not blowing at all? What would you suggest? 2013 f150 lariat

[@bearlyexplored]

It’s really hard to diagnose without seeing it in person

[@chriscasto7039]

I have a 2009 f150, changed the resistor, and it still only works on high, now whats ?

[@bearlyexplored]

Could be faulty out of the box, or maybe they gave you the wrong one as there are multiple available through ford

[@rodpotts2666]

Is it still working? I’m on my third one. Keeps shorting out on one pin and I have replaced the plug as well.

[@bearlyexplored]

So far this one is holding up. I was on number 3 as well. I found mine blew when I would turn the system off and turn it back on

[@rodpotts2666]

@@bearlyexplored same here. Thanks for the response!

[@chrisolguin1576]

Can you drop a link to this? Having the same issue

[@bearlyexplored]

According to my Ford dealership there are more than seven options available… Your best bet would be to contact them using your VIN and get a part number. That way you can search for the right one

[@chrisolguin1576]

@@bearlyexplored I found the part not too long after posting that comment! Truck has been working great ever since thank you

[@scottfree6699]

what if you keep popping resistors?

[@moderngunguy3666]

@David Evans I keep going through resistors and I've also changed the blower motor still blows resistors

[@EA-py2zz]

@@moderngunguy3666 Same here, have you find a solution for this?

[@moderngunguy3666]

@@EA-py2zz I went to O'Reilly's if I remember right and I bought the kit that comes with the resistor and the new plug and I've had that hooked up for about 3 or 4 months now.. I thought it went out pretty quickly but I unplugged it and replugged it back in and it's been working ever since.. I'm starting to think the problem is actually in the plug more than it is in resistor.. I try to avoid turning it off with the power button.. just because one of the guys in here says he thinks that could have been what was burning up the resistor but I have turned it off a couple still working

[@Sheeeeshhhh_]

So I replace this part on my truck notice it had a Burt spot on the last pin so I replaced it now I get air blowing towards me but now I’m getting hot air no cold before it was blowing super cold before it stop working and replace the blower resonator

[@bearlyexplored]

That is odd

[@frdm5774]

I have to constantly drop my glove box and reach in to wiggle the resistor to get the fan blowing. I guess changing it out would be step one?

[@bearlyexplored]

Sounds like it could be a connection issue in your case?

[@frdm5774]

Hey. Yes. Did some research and I’m going to replace the plug and resistor.

[@moderngunguy3666]

My blower motor resistor keeps going out on me even though I replaced it twice Do you have any idea what could cause that?

[@bearlyexplored]

I’m in the same boat… it only seems to do it if I shut off the system though

[@moderngunguy3666]

@@bearlyexplored so you think your resistor only blows if you turn the system on and off?

[@bearlyexplored]

@@moderngunguy3666 that’s what I think… all three times it has happened, it was after I turned the system off and then back on, it was then stuck on that fan speed. I haven’t shut it off since this video and I am still on the same one 🤞

hi i have a 2015 ford f150 lariat do you know where the resistor is located?

[@bearlyexplored]

If not in the same location, I wouldn’t be sure on the newer models

[@jdmfresh88]

Did you replace the plug as well or only the resistor?

[@bearlyexplored]

Just the resistor, I’ve had to do it three more times since this video was posted.

[@moderngunguy3666]

@@bearlyexplored So do you think you have to keep doing it because the resistors are bad or something wrong with the truck because I'm having the same problem but mine don't last longer than a day and some don't work right off the bat

[@bearlyexplored]

@@moderngunguy3666 it’s very hard to say, I did not do further testing, I boiled it down to the unit being faulty from the factory. It’s not uncommon to get broken or faulty parts right out of the box, even two or three times in a row. Do you turn your climate system off? (With the power button)

[@moderngunguy3666]

@@bearlyexplored No it doesn't turn off at all I actually unplugged it from the resistor when I want it completely off

[@bearlyexplored]

@@moderngunguy3666 sorry, I mean to say… did you notice you started having issues with the system after turning it off and then on? So, when you turn the system back on did it come back on a higher speed and then you weren’t able to do anything from that point?

[@devonbrinston493]

My connector has a short in it....I've tried 10 plus times to get the connector out of the resistor I'm starting to think it'd melting on but I don't see any signs of anything melted

[@bearlyexplored]

They can have a pretty good friction fit sometimes, it was very hard to pull mine apart the first time I did it. I hope you’ve made some progress since your comment?

[@philbutera1271]

Did you upgrade or update your navigation unit? Looks like sync 3.

[@bearlyexplored]

It has had a software update done, other than that it is stock. I also changed the background picture

[@Clipilla]

Thanks brother🤙

[@HooligansRacing]

I have a 2011 and if you hit the blower it will lightly start blowing other than that no speeds are operating

[@bearlyexplored]

Mine just went the other day again.. stuck on that mid/ high speed 🙄

[@danbrownlee2087]

That is a borg warner part . By the way

[@bearlyexplored]

How embarrassing…

[@mannyfresh215]

So what happens when your climate control doesn't wanna turn off? Will this fix that problem as well? Please let me know because that's the problem I'm having. Mine just don't want to turn off at all 🤷

This should solve that problem for you, I can’t say for sure though without seeing it and I am not a licensed mechanic

[@migueltorres8174]

Change the blower motor and the electrical connector..otherwise you will have to change the blower motor resistor every few months!

I just got a couple years out of that one. I just replaced it again a couple weeks ago, went with a ford one this time

Change blower motor if continually blowing resistor

I would exchange it for a new one and try again, sometimes they can be faulty out of the box
