I replaced a blower motor last year a few months after the heat wouldnt work but it would still blow but it was summer so I wasnt worried about it but now it doesnt turn on at all since I just replaced the blower motor last year should I try replacing the resistor first?
2011 Chevy Traverse can you do a video on the amplifier location in that truck I'm seeing three different videos but I don't see the amplifier and also there's a fuse box under the glove box on the passenger side which one is the amplifier fuse the radio play in the tweeters but it don't play in the doors the amplifier I was told to check amplifier in a fuse but where is all that located I cannot find it
I have a 2007 ford expedition I have had everything replaced for the ac..the condenser, the lines , blend doors, the actuator , compressor , ECT..all relays and fuses are working. The system is charged no leaks detected Ac works fine for months then goes back to hot air then works again for a while then stops this is a dual ac system makes no sense what could cause it to work fine then stop .. what could the issues be?????
As a single mom on a budget, I really appreciate 1A Auto. Y’all have no idea! Fixed my AC, 3 different fuses, and my brakes. I feel so dam accomplished!
I have seen so many unhelpful videos on this topic (well-meaning but horrible quality), but this one was comprehensive and explained everything very well for a non-mechanic to understand.
This turned the little light bulb on! My resistor blew out, with my original blower motor(really old). I replaced the resistor, it worked fine for a few days. Suddenly the blower didn’t work either. Put in new blower motor, still didn’t work. But now I think I blew out the new resistor on the old blower motor. So now i’m hoping that with my new blower motor, that a new resistor should not longer be “cooking” from the old blower motor! As the video sats, replacing both would be best. Thanks for the great video!
The production, presentation, and walk through in detail was all I needed. So grateful for you. Two years with no air conditioning. Watched your video replaced blower motor and blower motor resistor. Turned on ac and was blasted with two years of dust lol. Subscribed Thank you! 🙏
Excellent video. Did the basic test light check at the motor harness, power was there. So as suggested, i ordered both blower and resister 6 days ago. They came in the mail today. Took about 20 minites to swap out my 08 tahoe and now the air blows freely again....just before the ice and snow that is coming tomorrow! Thank you!
Thank you a million times. My fan blower motor went out in the middle of the winter. I've been having several problems with my car and didn't want to sink too much more money into it. Thanks to your video and a few others I was able to change it myself and was only out the cost of the part. You saved me hundreds of dollars vs. bringing it into a shop. 😊
Thanks for this! Helped me to understand the system and check everything. My fan was making noise for a day, then it stopped turning which caused the resistor to smoke. I watched the video, pulled the motor and found it was binding. Replaced it. Pulled the resistor, and smelled it! Yes, it smelled like burnt plastic, which was same smell when the system smoked. Replaced resistor, checked all fuses. Replaced both for less than 100$. Thanks for the video! 🙏🏼
The last blower job I did, the problem was debris in the ducting that had jammed in the fan. Fortunately the stalled fan motor had not burned out (protected by a blown fuse) and removing the obstruction cured the problem.
Thank you for the short and easy to follow video. Just swapped my blower motor out in my 08 crv took me no less than 5 minutes! Like someone else said I used a T20 bit and it worked just fine.
Great video. Love these walk-throughs. Just wanna point out that if a persons suspects a bad resistor pack out of the gate, testing for resistance on all of the resistor points should allow you to make that determination instead of using deduction to come to a reasonable conclusion about what is wrong.
Great video! This is how this worked out for me: confirmed bad resistor and replaced myself. Worked short period of time. Took it to mechanic. Resistor replaced again. Worked a little while than inconsistently. Now stopped. Now will confirm cabinet air filter clean/replaced, new resistor and blower motor. Sometimes lessons learned the hard way.
Very helpful video. My fan wasn’t working, I was getting volts before and after Resistor/Relay thinking fan was toast. Took the fan out hooked it up to my battery and it worked. Glad i didn’t buy a new fan. I was a lil confused why everything worked but Put everything back together. Maybe loose connections or there was a few dozen pine needles in the fan. Ty
I have a question about the resistor…I get a natural gas or rotten egg smell every few minutes or so when my blower is running. Is that the resistor ? I just replaced my blower and everything works. I just can’t get rid of the smell. I changed the cabin air filter like 3 times. Thanks in advance!! You’re doing a great service for a lot of people.
I got a test light from O'Reilly and it couldn't reach the positive side of the terminal. I didn't have my tools on me either. While I plugged the blower motor back in it started to work again. These helped me narrow it down, I think it's a loose wire in the connector. Thank you
Check your cabin filter aswell! The low pressure created by the blower motor from a clogged cabin filter can put excess strain on the blower, resistor and circuit.
Very informative video not like the other videos that just tell you about one thing and don't explain everything else you have really helped us all save money you guys are the best.
What do you do when your blower not working in your 2001 Bruella say I want to you can look cool air coming up but do you know here in the blower motor run
Love your videos very helpful, only thing I would add is clean connections sometimes you get lucky! Like I did, on mine was the blower motor connections were to dirty wouldnt let it get power
Most explanatory video I have ever seen very good video this isn't even the year model in looking for but just your explanation is very descriptive and explained the functions of both the parts for me as well thanks for the video helped me out tremendously ..
resistors contribute to alot. fun fact, if your car is having the issue of heating or cooling only one side of the car (left vs right) many times its a faulty resistor. after trying to recharge the a/c system and checking blendoors, the resistor turns out to be the culprit more than not.
Great video and trouble shooting steps. Allowed me to figure out my problem with my blower motor problem. However, going through these trouble shooting steps brought me to the only issue NOT mentioned in this great video, the BLOWER MOTOR RELAY! Can't believe there was no mention of that possible issue. But since the fuses were good but had no power at the blower motor resistor, next possible issue is the relay. But keep up the great videos!
At minute 3.18, he verified the power, coming from the relay, so it is not necessary to check the relay, if there was no power, yes, he would have to first verify the continuity of the line and the efficiency of the relay, in my opinion the youtuber did the right job.
Your video helped a lot but problem was different ! I removed fuse in power box for front blower to check it (40A box style clear top) and saw no problem with meter. When I put it back everything working now! Can’t explain except it rebooted fan circuit Thanks
Please let me know what do I do when do 2001 Bill saber blower motor is not saying anything to Blue or not you can I hear the blower motor only thing I think the Freon is coming up but the blower motor is acting up it’s not saying any time do you think is the thermostat or is the blower motor cut the blower motor is not saying anything
Very educative. Thank you for the insight. Please What direction should a blower run? And what could go wrong if its working in opposite direction? And how do i get it corrected??
Blower was working on high only and would sometimes turn off after hitting a bump. Changed the resister, now blower works on all speeds but next highest(#4 of 5). Car has a low and high blower fuse but no 4/5 power fuse. 2001 Buick Century Limited.
Quick hack… if you have no fan kicking on, go to your blower motor and give it a good smack. If it turns on, you know you either have a loose connection or most likely the brushes in the motor are going bad. That’s how we did little quick tests on some conveyors in the warehouses when I did maintenance before working in planes. This test was to see if it was a blown fuse on the circuit board ( like the resistor he’s talking about and showing) or to see if the brushes were bad on the actual motor. If the dead spot on the flex conveyor started moving again, we changed the brushes and blew out the motor. When the motor completely fails and freezes up, then it blows the fuses. But yea. Be more technical like this guy and use multimeters and stuff.
Thanks so much for uploading these incredible videos I greatly appreciate you all. You help me fix all my issues with the vehicles that I have. This one for me was just a new pigtail needed for the blower motor. It was pretty black and corroded.
2005 Pontiac Grand Am Discovered water on passenger floor and blotted and sucked it up to dry. AC vent leak? I still don't know and no recurring floor flood. Months later Blower speed 5 stopped. OK so 1-4 was ok for another week or so then altogether failed and faint burn odor could be smelled. Removed resistor and see some blistering,bubbles on surface and detected burn smell culprit. Replaced resistor. Still nothing. Checked fuses. Nothing. Replaced blower,and it needs to be exact fit with cutaway for BCM slide in. Nothing. Removed BCM and inspected for exterior pin and interior corrosion. Nothing inside but outside 2 pins and some green oxidation cleaned. Still nothing. Next up is what,the actual blower control switch on and behind dashboard?? Ugh!
I have a 2004 Chevy Venture. The blower first started not working intermittently, in all 5 speeds, then stopped working altogether. When taking things apart I noticed some melting in the 2 prong harness going from the old control module to the blower. I changed the control module and found 4 of the lower fan settings work but not 5, the highest. It's totally dead on 5. Should I install a new blower motor or could the new control module be bad? How loose should the blower squirrel cage be when spun by hand? Mine seems fine but it does have a bit of resistance. Could that be causing a failure on the highest setting?
Great video and very informative through out the video. Perfect step by step on how to test each phase of what could go wrong with no blower motor. Mine is intermittent although this gives me the process on how to check.

Very helpful. Thanks. What about intermittent issues? Bought a new resister before checking the electrical components (i.e. fuses and connections). I will follow what you did to check the power going to the resister and blower motor before I buy the blower motor (3rd gen Dodge Ram 1500).
Smart plan to replace both. My company van has blown through 2 resisters and this thing has been scarely used the last 2 years. First sign of trouble ... I'm changing both resister and motor.
I love you guys and your videos. Wanted to replace both items today and it seems 1A Auto does not carry any of the parts. It doesn't list on the website.
Replaced there is just a first with the Motorcraft one tried it with the blower motor that was tired still nothing replace the blower motor second initially got speed 12 and three and four and the fan than one and two went Nana but three went so for the only one that’s working I’m assuming it’s the resistor again probably should’ve replace them both at the same time and not done resistor first. Going to order another resistor and try again any ideas would be appreciated at this point

2015 honda pilot. Rear ac won't come on. Checked relays , fuses, resistor, and blower. I don't get power from the wires that connect to the blower. Any idea I been spending hours. Can't find anything. I pulled the actuator off and tested and it was not working. Can this cause the rear ac blower motor to not work?? Thanks for any help
I have a 2010 f15 platinum edition and over the last few weeks all be driving along and my ac will stop blowing...... then come back on.....then blow soft.... then come back on.... then go back off. I know it's nothing with my compressor because air is still cold so it's either the blower or resistor..... oddtho usually when a blower goes out.... it goes out.... it does kick on and off. What ya think....should I change the blower first or resistor?
My 2008 gmc yukon denali 2008 at low speed dont work and at hight speed some time come on and some times it blow like 3 secunds and go low and woorks again and if i leave it at higt speed some time take like 10 minites to turn on already change the resistor and still same do you think is the blower i can ear a knoking noise inside by the glossbox when the blower is on the hight speed and the blower is no blowing noise is there
my 06 buick works fine with ac and just fan. BUT the heating part does not blow well at all. At high speed I can hear it behind the dash blowing but little coming out of vents. Is this a broken or stuck door?
You guys rock. on a 07 focus the ac works meaning the clutch works but fan dont when on speed 1 but turn fan on 3 or 4 fan works but ac turns off. any idea?
All my connectors, fuses, and fan had power. Of course after taking the fan out and checking if it still worked. Fan switches on module did not turn when on any setting. Found out later it was the blower resistor after a new one was put on. 2013 Nissan rogue S.
Ive changed resistor and blower motor, stil no fan/heater. Going to change all fuses in relation to AC today. If that doesnt work its a power ground, loose wire, issue right? The blower worked intermittently and then went out completely.
Good morning Sir..Watching from France..Midule replaced..Resistor..two oxygen sesors..relays and fuses ok..But no current inside the switch under the dashboard..I would like to know what is the problem and have to solveit..Thanks so much..❤
The blower on my impala got so it would stop running . sometimes after 20 or 30 minutes but sometimes after a few seconds. Bought a resistor to replace it but discovered that wiggling the plug on the resistor made the blower start or stop. Shot some contact cleaner in the plug and the prongs on the resistor. Plugged it back in and wiggled the plug. Also plugged and unplugged a few times. It seems to be fixed without any parts. Will take the resistor back if it continues to work.
My 97 outback gave me over 400k without any hint of blower trouble. Now I have an 08 model and the the blower decides to stops working and failed the rego cert. Why do they make such junk cars now? BTW, the 3 speed fan still works on my 1968 Chrysler.
Thank you very much, the information you provided is awesome! I've looked at a lot of the videos, but I need help with something else. 2004 Tahoe w/rear HVAC. The rear temp blend actuator swaps from hot to cold continuously. None of my mechanic friends could figure it out. I've swapped the to actuators (same parts number) and replaced the rear control module twice. I live in south Georgia, so several years ago I manually (snapped the motor cover off and moved it) set it to cold and unplugged it. Btw, I'm a parts guy for over 30 years. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks again.
Well explained I started my car and the ac was already on so i dont know why put i press on AUTO and the motor stop working .. check the fuses box 2 15 amp fuse blown.. when i changed them the fan blower work but with a weird noise.. and it smell like burnt
checked motor blower/fan is good, cold switching and warm switching works I can feel it air changing temperature next to the fan...but the air is still not blowing from the fans - 2010 honda crv ex
HI GREAT VID..can you help...when i turn the switch on for the heater or blower it just makes a low sound as though it wants to start but car,nt, so would that be the resistor? cheers. pls reply..
my daughters 2016 Mazda 6 a/c will work, but at times will not do anything (hit and miss). Should I start by looking at both blower and resistor, or something else?? when it does work it blows cold
Where is the blower motor resister located on a 2003 ford f150 lariat 4.6l I've looked all under the dash and not able to locate it I've changed the relay and the and checked all fues I have the automatic ac/heat control

2015 honda pilot. Rear ac won't come on. Checked relays , fuses, resistor, and blower. I don't get power from the wires that connect to the blower. Any idea I been spending hours. Can't find anything. I pulled the actuator off and tested and it was not working. Can this cause the rear ac blower motor to not work?? Thanks for any help
I have a 2010 f15 platinum edition and over the last few weeks all be driving along and my ac will stop blowing...... then come back on.....then blow soft.... then come back on.... then go back off. I know it's nothing with my compressor because air is still cold so it's either the blower or resistor..... oddtho usually when a blower goes out.... it goes out.... it does kick on and off. What ya think....should I change the blower first or resistor?
My 2008 gmc yukon denali 2008 at low speed dont work and at hight speed some time come on and some times it blow like 3 secunds and go low and woorks again and if i leave it at higt speed some time take like 10 minites to turn on already change the resistor and still same do you think is the blower i can ear a knoking noise inside by the glossbox when the blower is on the hight speed and the blower is no blowing noise is there
my 06 buick works fine with ac and just fan. BUT the heating part does not blow well at all. At high speed I can hear it behind the dash blowing but little coming out of vents. Is this a broken or stuck door?
You guys rock. on a 07 focus the ac works meaning the clutch works but fan dont when on speed 1 but turn fan on 3 or 4 fan works but ac turns off. any idea?
All my connectors, fuses, and fan had power. Of course after taking the fan out and checking if it still worked. Fan switches on module did not turn when on any setting. Found out later it was the blower resistor after a new one was put on. 2013 Nissan rogue S.
But the question my heat blower not turning off in my 2012 impala LTZ what do you think it could be the heat control, the blower or the resistor?
Ive changed resistor and blower motor, stil no fan/heater. Going to change all fuses in relation to AC today.
If that doesnt work its a power ground, loose wire, issue right?
The blower worked intermittently and then went out completely.
Good morning Sir..Watching from France..Midule replaced..Resistor..two oxygen sesors..relays and fuses ok..But no current inside the switch under the dashboard..I would like to know what is the problem and have to solveit..Thanks so much..❤
module Relays and fuses ok Resistor ....And how to solve the problem Sir..
The blower on my impala got so it would stop running . sometimes after 20 or 30 minutes but sometimes after a few seconds. Bought a resistor to replace it but discovered that wiggling the plug on the resistor made the blower start or stop. Shot some contact cleaner in the plug and the prongs on the resistor. Plugged it back in and wiggled the plug. Also plugged and unplugged a few times. It seems to be fixed without any parts. Will take the resistor back if it continues to work.
What should I do, I my blower motor works but cool air does not coming out at all on the driver side?
Great video!08 ford escape ac blower stuck on position ant it won’t turn off , what could it be? A bad resistor?
My 97 outback gave me over 400k without any hint of blower trouble. Now I have an 08 model and the the blower decides to stops working and failed the rego cert. Why do they make such junk cars now? BTW, the 3 speed fan still works on my 1968 Chrysler.
Thank you very much, the information you provided is awesome! I've looked at a lot of the videos, but I need help with something else.
2004 Tahoe w/rear HVAC. The rear temp blend actuator swaps from hot to cold continuously. None of my mechanic friends could figure it out. I've swapped the to actuators (same parts number) and replaced the rear control module twice. I live in south Georgia, so several years ago I manually (snapped the motor cover off and moved it) set it to cold and unplugged it. Btw, I'm a parts guy for over 30 years. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks again.
Well explained
I started my car and the ac was already on so i dont know why put i press on AUTO and the motor stop working .. check the fuses box 2 15 amp fuse blown.. when i changed them the fan blower work but with a weird noise.. and it smell like burnt
Great explanation of the functions... thank you
You are the best explaining and sharing your skills thanks!!
checked motor blower/fan is good, cold switching and warm switching works I can feel it air changing temperature next to the fan...but the air is still not blowing from the fans - 2010 honda crv ex
HI GREAT VID..can you help...when i turn the switch on for the heater or blower it just makes a low sound as though it wants to start but car,nt, so would that be the resistor? cheers. pls reply..
Good one, I didn't know you could check those new fuses without taking them out.

Yours explenation are fantastic!
Thank You!
my daughters 2016 Mazda 6 a/c will work, but at times will not do anything (hit and miss). Should I start by looking at both blower and resistor, or something else?? when it does work it blows cold
This channel is amazing.
Hi I have voltage at blower motor socket, even with resistor out.... voltage increase and decrease when I turn dial....
Where is the blower motor resister located on a 2003 ford f150 lariat 4.6l I've looked all under the dash and not able to locate it I've changed the relay and the and checked all fues I have the automatic ac/heat control
