Blower suddenly stopped working on my 2010 F-150. I spent about a half hour checking fuses and after striking out, I went to youtube and this was the first video I watched for this issue. I went out and swapped the two relays like you did and my blower works now. Don't know what I'd do without folks like you. Thanks a million!

So after removing the blower motor which if you dont have a swivel adapter it can be a bear. However checking the motor and replacing the resistor I watched this video and vola it was the relay. Thanks for your info much appreciated.

Man o man thanks to you tube, people are Saving lots of money. My blower just stopped last week working, out of curiosity I went to Ford and asked them how much and how long it would take and they told me anywhere from $500 to $1000 bucks. The only reason I did not leave my truck with them , they told me they were behind on work. I said le me look on you tube. Voila!! Got I fix for less than $50 bucks after watching some videos on you tube.

Thanks buddy you just save me purchasing a new blower! Not to mention the guy at the local Ford parts desk just told me it would take 12 hours to change the blower motor. I think he was thinking of the Fresh air door replacement. Thanks!

That was it. But I have had so many instances in the past where things would go wrong and I would check the fuse or relay, and they would be good. And I would have to replace the part, ie fuel pump. So I didn't even bother to look at the relay, until I happened to see your video. But other videos I saw, suggested checking the blower fan itself or another part located near the blower. (Guess they figured most folks would automatcally check fuses first) Thank you for reminding to check the simple things first

I have a 2009 ford 150 platinum and my blower is not stuck and runs with heat and Ac. But the way it runs it dims the lights on and off with the speed of the fan running. Almost like a heavy load on a circuit and your lights dim a bit and then full on and then dims a bit and back on full. That's what my fan blower sounds like and does. Is that part of the same issue for me or is there something else that is part of the blower ? Thanks. Great video by the way too.
@MajorWeakness10 ай бұрын
Sounds like your blower motor is going bad and pulling, too .many amps but should be brought to a shop to confirm
@peppi777710 ай бұрын
@@MajorWeakness thank you for the fast reply. Much appreciated. I will have it checked. Probably best to change both anyway. Motor blower and sensor. If that is the case then the motor should be putting lots of stress on the sensor part heating it up. If the shop finds its the motor blower I will change the other part too. Matter as well do both . Thank you very much. It helped a lot clearafying things in a better view point. Have a wonderful day Sir.

My 06 blower motor resistor went out little over a year ago so I ordered one on Amazon had good reviews it worked for a year and when it did burn out it would only work on setting three and four that burned out couple months ago I got that company to send me a new one now this one’s only last about a month or two and it only works on setting for now not even three anymore now I’m getting real irritated and trying to figure out what the problem is you’re going to watch your video and see if I figure anything out

@MajorWeakness2 жыл бұрын
@@davidbryant5875 I would work my way back from the resister. Put a power meter on the resister and see when you change the switch does the output voltage change or does it even have an input voltage. If it doesnt have an input voltage then keep working back towards the switch. Might just be a connector that came loose

Check all your ground cables around the relay box. Sound like there is a wiring issue. Look for any evidence of chewing damage by small rodents. They love to chew on wires.
