03 rendezvous heater fan runs with key off

It sounds like you may have a malfunctioning component in your heating system that is causing the fan to continue running even when the car is turned off. Pulling fuse 47, which controls the climate control blower and ignition 3 relay, stopped the fan from running but may have also caused other issues in the system. Replacing the fuse may not fix the problem, it may be necessary to have a mechanic diagnose and repair the specific component causing the issue.

Where is the heater fuse for a 1989 Club Wagon Ford

blower fan fuse should be in main fuse block and usually labeled heater. If not labeled, use test lamp with heater fan turned to on to test both sides of each fuse. Find one hot on one side only, pull and replace.

Heater fan not operating

Most of the time when a heater blower quits working it is the blower switch that fails rather than the motor. Blower switch can be accessed in the dash panel.

Where is the heater core located on a 1994 chevy corsica?

the heater core for this vehicles located behind the glove box on passenger side.in order to remove it,you will need to be mechanically inclined.are you?do you have the tools to do so?8mm sockets and ratchet? you will need patience! if not,i recommend you ask your mechanic to replace it. but 1st i will ask these questions. is it the heater core? is fluid leaking onto the passenger side floorboard? that's one sign of a bad heater core. no heat? have you checked the fluid level in your radiator? does your cooling fan come on when the engine's at operating temperature? if not, then it may be a bad temperature sensor at the radiator. it may also be a bad fan relay in the main fuse box under the hood in the main fuse box[black box w/lid under the hood.lift the cover off of it and under the lid,it tells you fuse and the relay locations.if you turn your a/c on and the fan comes on,and does'nt come on when the engine gets hot,the fan sensor may be bad.the fan sensor that tells the fan to come on when the engines running hot. thank you,for choosing fixya,com!

My 1999 DeVille Concours A/C and heater fans don't come on.

open hood,look in main fuse box for blown fuses,or bad relays to heater fans. the a/c fan should come on only when you turn a/c on at the dash panel only. it has nothing to do with the heat. if the heater blower fans don't come on, then look in the main box[fuse] for a blown fuse also. otherwise the problem is in the heater control module.[where you turn on a/c and the heat] that panel has a different fuse location.under the dash drivers side or on panel on drivers door at the door jam[where the door shuts towards the front of car,under mirror,but inside] look for fuse panel there also for blown fuse. hope this helps,but if not,recommend you seek a pro.such as cadillac

My 2007 Nissan Quest's front heater fan no longer works. I checked the fuses (in the main engine compartment) and they are fine. Where is the fan anyway? Is it located deep under the dash..can a common guy...

2000 or 2007?

It might be just the blower resister located on the heater box. 2 screws and about 4 wires, easy change.
Here's the blower in the heater box:
