Thank you got the switch for $20 on Amazon, works great now for my 2009 Cobalt LS. My fans were only working on 1-3 but not 4, upon removal of the switch the one pin was slightly burnt so I cleaned it up as best I could on the harness and its working for now. Hopefully I don't have to splice a new harness in from the junkyard.
Thank you mostly for the list of other vehicles that use the same switch. AutoZone said i needed to replace the air control unit (box) and it is a "dealer only part". Local chevy dealer wanted $197 plus tax. After watching this video the first time, went back to the same AutoZone, ordered the switch for the Pontiac (took 2 days to ship to that location), $18. I can vouch that it is the exact same switch. Thanks for saving me a couple hundred bucks!
I did all my troubleshooting, then came to the internet to hunt down the part number I found, came across your video in my search results. You had the PN I was looking for! Thanks!
Thanks for the advice and saving me money on this switch a second time. I went this route a couple years ago and will again this afternoon. I got this video saved and subscribed to your channel long ago. Thanks again
I had to comment on this video because it helped me. I have an 05 cobalt and my AC was only blowing on 4 or high. I watched this video and had the part replaced! This video saved me hundreds!
Thanks for your help, used your info for a 07 G5. Gave the part numbers you listed to a NAPA store in Ontario Canada. The switch was $40 and the whole console was $300 (aftermarket).The 07 G5 didn't have the same # you listed but had a bar code. Used your # and it worked perfectly. Thanks again.
I replaced the wire harness going to the blower motor but ffw a year or so & today, the high selection stopped working. All the other speeds work, just the HIGH SELECTION STOPPED WORKING & I REMEMBERED THIS VIDEO! THANK YOU. Normally I'd grab it from a junk yard but, we'll see...anyways, Thanks.
Thanks! Looks like an easy fix. My garage charged me $30 for diagnostics and wanted $300 for parts and labor. Shipped to my house the part is $29 with shipping from Advanced Auto Parts. So, less than I paid for diagnostic testing, I got the part that should take me less than 15-minutes to do.
Thank you so much for making this vid. Just replaced the switch in my cobalt. Fan works perfectly now. And it was exactly $27 at autozone. Great video. Thank you again.
I love guys like you who take the time, and share the knowledge with helping average folks with the scams the dealers get us with this...My daughter has a 2005 Pursuit, and she took the car into a mechanic and when she got it back, she noticed the next day that the dial itself was broken..just the dial itself...the junkyard wont sell just the dial, but they want us to buy the entire panel for $50...do you know where I might find the part number for the dial? Thanks gain, and thanks for helping folks.
I thought this was my original problem so I went to Chevy and told them I just needed the knob that controls the AC. They ordered the part, and I got it in a few days. Costed me about $24.00. (It didn't even fix the problem that I had either), but they should be able to get it for you.
Yes, that is great news so " thank you " for this information that's too much money to replace the switch having to buy that whole unit wow !! Awesome!!!
OM*G.....YOU MY GOOD SIR ARE A GOD-SEND. My switch only went on high and when wiggled it'll turn off. Couldn't get back to low just high. Thankfully my a.c. works but it was either on full blast (freezing) or off (oven on wheels). Called auto zone n they had only one. Went, purchased n now back to off, low, med n high. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.
Excellent work my friend. Screw the dealers and their ridiculous prices, if you can back door a part, do it. I was thinking you were going to break out the soldering iron and wrench in a generic switch. I had a problem with starter switch on my truck… dealer part, lots of dismantling, I engineered a fix, but it isn’t pretty. Always enjoy your posts…K
Hey, Thanks a lot. yea this was cheap and easy, I'm not getting comments due to this new google+ crap, I just stumbled across this one, So If I don't respond back to something that's why. I don't know if the PM's are working or not.
Seeing that you replaced your fan switch & it that video, it appears that I see a wire that is spliced so. Let me ask, on my 07 Pontiac G5, I need to trace the rear defogger wire.. Do you know which wire provides 12v to the rear window for the rear defogger? My defogger switch lights up, the relay under the hood, it clicks but, No power at the tabs on the rear window & I need to know what wire runs to the back window & where it runs? I tried looking from the rear window forward but struggled with the plastic along the back seats, the wall of plastic beside the rear seat.I tried to trace it from the tabs rearward but did not have enough time.
I don't see the part number you are describing. Can you please tell me what it is? I've already replied the fuses, relay, resistor and blower motor. Didn't turn on anything. I'm hoping it's this part. Thanks a bunch!
Marty Young you think I just waste my time making this crap up, making up bogus part numbers in my head, pretending to spend hours online cross referencing manufacturers part numbers, then bother to make a video about it. Just for your approval. Really appreciate the maximum effort on your part dude.
Did you change this because the blower resistor didn't fix the problem? My 2005 cobalt AC heat only works on the high setting of 4. I replaced the resistor as many said that is what it is, but it did not fix the problem. This appears to be the next thing to replace as all the relays and fuses seems to be fine. I also read that a low AC Freon can make the system not work in a cobalt.
If I unplug that switch and hook up a new will it power the blower if nothing else is wrong, or does it need to be mounted back in the assembly to work? Being wired apart from the selector and temp switch I wouldn't think it would matter.
The ac knob for the fan speed on mine broke off, i think it melted. I replaced it. Right now 20k miles later air only blows out on high. I think i’ll replace that and the blower motor resistor
Carso Ackerman-Clemons The blower motor bypasses the resistor when the fan speed is on 4. If your A/C doesn’t work on 1-3, then you have a bad resistor.
so thank you, my switch ws broke, so i fixed it, but the wiring harness had a pin that was burned and melted, can you show me how to replace the wiring to that part????
My blower motor failed and took everything else with it, that's is the resistor board, the switch and the 30 amp fuse under the hood. The whole kit and kaboodle including the blower, resistor, switch and fuse cost me about $85 and about an hour or so to replace. Gotta love eBay!
I've replaced my resistor & blower motor when I came across this video. I see you have just the area needing access removed. How do you take the panels off just over the radio & a/c cluster without taking the whole dash board apart??? An immediate answer would help a whole lot as I in need of my a/c working asap because my Cobalt is my job & every day my is down its costing me majorly. Thanks for all your help! Mwah! (it's ok, I'm a woman so u can accept my kiss, lol!)
+Nicole Silverman that was like 3 years ago, i don't exactly remember, but im 99% sure they just pop off if you tug on them gently. im sure some ones done a video on it, especially if you look up replacing the radio or something.
It's easy to take the plastic pieces off. You do need to take the other two pieces off that surround the radio piece, as the corners of those pieces sit over the corners of the plastic piece over the radio if that makes sense. I can make a quick video if you'd like. Takes like 2 min total to get the pieces off
Gonzo Cobalt SS TC Could you make a quick video please? I would greatly appreciate it! I've looked online everywhere and it says to take apart by the glove box and steering wheel. I want a quick version please.
This helped a LOT! Now, any ideas on where to look for the control knob to connect to this fan switch? (Mine is cracked and won't work - no universals to fit since they sell the entire part instead)
EitriBrokkr Nice! I wish I had seen that before I ended up throwing the knob out a few weeks ago! Either way, I'm taking a gamble on a new OEM GM Part# 22724323 "A/C Control Knob" - will tell you how it turns out r.ebay.com/KWXIyb
EitriBrokkr Yup, the knob was perfect and matched my old one. Great eBay find for $22 from seller big-3-oem-auto-parts - You might find others with the same Part#, I don't know. The seller has many of these left: r.ebay.com/WbyBxw but if you can't find it, the eBay item was listed as: "Chevrolet Cobalt Pontiac Pursuit G5 Heater & A/C Blower CONTROL KNOB new OEM"
How did you know the switch was bad? When I reach down under the dash and wiggle the wires attached to the blower motor sometimes it will turn on. Any ideas on a fix?
I had the same issue on my G5 until I replaced the blower motor pigtail! Got mine from a junkyard but, I also purchased one on ebay & just in case, I purchased the entire wire harness but, the day mine failed, I did not have the pigtail on me & I was close to the junkyard.
Awesome video! I was just wondering because my gfs fan just stopped working out of nowhere do you think this is the cause? I checked all the fuses and relays and they seemed to be fine. Also power was going into the blower motor itself so I dont think thats the problem either. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Did anyone ever find out if this fix works for an 06 cobalt? I went to the link for the part, says it's not a fit but looking at the back of the supposed replacement it looks the same? Don't want to take it apart if I don't have to jus to find out it's not a fit.
What if you've done this replaced the resistor the blower motor and all fues are good but still know fan ....I bought all parts knew and not rebuilt even tried two new switch's like the one in the video my ac is ice cold just no fan !??? Anyone????
wtf i got power at fuses 10 and 16(in the HVAC module which is what power that switch i think) but i have no power to plug that plugs into that thing i also have no power at resister if there is power at the fuses for the module but i have no power on the wire at plug is it the module or wiring
another substitution I discovered is the gear shift indicator bulb, instead of going to GM for the A37, you can buy the Sylvania 37LL at any parts store.
RockAuto has them for $14.75. I'm ordering mine tomorrow and hopefully it fixes my problem. Thanks for the model number, mine only had a Barcode number that I couldn't find anything on line with.

Thought I would give you a shout back. If you figure out how to pm, let me know. TH-cam has been helpful to me figuring things out on occasion, I'm sure anyone replacing this switch will be appreciative. Have a good one...
I took my car to chevy dealer and they told me I needed the control head for AC so that would be the whole thing like you said. My knob wont catch, so it just turns all the way around and won't turn on the blower. Do you think this would solve my problem? I found this part on Amazon (link below) and it said it fits a 99 Corvette... Does it look correct? If this works, it will save me right at 300.00! www.amazon.com/ACDelco-15-5691-Original-Equipment-Conditioning/dp/B000C9FEF0/ref=au_as_r?ie=UTF8&Make=Chevrolet%7C47&Model=Cobalt%7C2562&Year=2005%7C2005&n=15684181&newVehicle=1&s=automotive&vehicleId=2&vehicleType=automotive#productDetails
just a thought, is your switch bad, or is the knob just broke in the back, and spinning on the switch shaft? I only ask because that won't come with a new knob.
That's how it started. My fan would blow hard on 2 but turn off on 4. Not lining up with the dial. So i eventually broke the knob on the inside from trying to get it to work right. Until i found a knob, i was using needle nose plyers to turn it. Then i got a new knob for 28.00 from Chevrolet, but now the thing just turns all the way around with no catch. So I think I stripped the shaft with plyers. I took to Chevrolet & they said I needed a new "control head". That's when I started researching it online & found your video. I was ecstatic when i watched it & found this out! I will definitely give it a try... Thank you!
Jessica Scott yeah then you should be good to go with just the switch. good luck, let me know if everything turns out ok. fyi here's a guy a fellow commenter got his knobs from on ebay www.ebay.com/itm/271323354992 said they worked great, and here's a ghetto way of fixing them if they crack, it looks a little crazy but it actually works really good. th-cam.com/video/ziPutFi1BlI/w-d-xo.html

Jessica Scott yeah then you should be good to go with just the switch. good luck, let me know if everything turns out ok. fyi here's a guy a fellow commenter got his knobs from on ebay www.ebay.com/itm/271323354992 said they worked great, and here's a ghetto way of fixing them if they crack, it looks a little crazy but it actually works really good. th-cam.com/video/ziPutFi1BlI/w-d-xo.html
