  1. Remove the right side instrument panel lower insulator panel.
  2. Disconnect the blower motor resistor electrical connector from the blower motor.
There are two kinds, one is not serviceable and is part of the blower motor assembly, the second type will have a separate resistor, and I'm assuming you have this type.

Hi, the manual says it's on the blower:

  1. Remove the front floor kick-up panel.
  2. Remove the cover from the I/P electrical center.
  3. Remove the BLO MOT (blower motor) MaxiFuse No. 49 from the I/P electrical center.
  4. Remove the right side instrument panel lower insulator panel.
  5. Disconnect the blower motor resistor electrical connector from the blower motor.
Please let me know if you have more questions, and thanks for using FixYa.

SOURCE: 2002 Chevy Impala Blower resistor location

It is on the passenger side, you have to remove the black plastic kick plate, below the glove box, to expose it (held in place with 2 latches and 1 push pin). The resistor is in front of the blower motor ( sandwiched between the motor housing and the firewall) it is tricky to get to, i think when i changed mine i didnt replace all the screws as they were difficult to remove and even harder to replace. Good Luck, Mike

SOURCE: ac blower motor

The blower motor resistor is located at the top of the fresh air intake (hard plastic hose going into the "box") You most likely have, or have had, water in your passenger side floor board area as well. The resistor is in direct line with one of the water leak problems on the 2006. I would bet that the "noise" you hear is trash, or debris in your fan motor housing. (might even be water)

Open your hood and remove the black plastic moulding from your lower windshield (remove the wiper arms first) there you will find a clear plastic sheet of polyeurethane. It is either missing or open enough for "critters" to gain access to your fresh air intake.

SOURCE: need to replace blower motor resistor, where is it

Hi,

There is a complete technical bulletin for the same. Let me provide you with complete details.

Subject: Blower Motor Inoperative In Any One or More Blower Speed

Models: 2004-2006 Chevrolet Colorado
2004-2006 GMC Canyon


he following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this PI.

Condition/Concern:

Blower motor inoperative in one or more blower speeds. This concern is due to a loose connection at the blower motor resistor.

Recommendation/Instructions:

Inspect the connection at the blower motor resistor. Replace the blower motor resistor and any terminals in the female part of the connector that show evidence of arching or corrosion. The replacement connector and terminals are listed below.

1. Part Number 15306069, Female Connector With Leads. Replace the connector body with leads only if the connector body shows signs of damage. It may be necessary to generate a SPAC case to obtain this connector with leads.
2. Part Number 12176387, Replacement Female Terminal. This terminal is made of copper-beryllium and can be located in Delphi tray 3 of your Packard kit. Only replace the terminal(s) if the connector body has no evidence of damage.
3. Replace the blower motor resistor only if it shows signs of arching or corrosion at its terminals. Use current SPO stock.


It is located next to the blower motor,under the right side of the dash. I will send you some pictures to help you locate it. It is held into the case by 2 small screws.

Where is the blower resistor located to Townace Noah

The blower resistor in a Toyota Townace Noah with a 3S engine is typically located near the blower motor, which is responsible for directing air into the vehicle's cabin.
Here is a general guide on how to locate the blower resistor in a Toyota Townace Noah with a 3S engine:
  1. Locate the blower motor: The blower motor is typically located under the passenger side dashboard, near the footwell.
  2. Identify the blower resistor: The blower resistor is typically a small rectangular or cylindrical component that is connected to the wiring harness near the blower motor.
  3. Remove the blower resistor: To access the blower resistor, you may need to remove the cover or the panel that covers the blower motor. You can then unplug the wiring harness and remove the mounting bolts to remove the blower resistor.
Note: The location and accessibility of the blower resistor may vary depending on the specific model and year of your Toyota Townace Noah with a 3S engine. If you are unsure about the location or how to access the blower resistor, it is recommended to consult a professional mechanic or the vehicle's owner's manual.
It is important to handle the blower resistor with care, as it can be easily damaged if not handled properly. If you are not confident in your ability to replace the blower resistor, it is best to seek assistance from a qualified mechanic.

My heater blowers dnt work and i need to knw where i can locate the resister blocks for my heater blowers so i can ghange them

Its located under dash,or near glove box.

The dash panel lower side has to be out.

HEATER BLOWER MOTOR


Its faulty blower motor resistor. The low and medium speed on blower motor is controlled by resistor and its actual speed is high. So because resistor is not working, blower motors actual speed which is high is working.


It can be faulty blower motor or faulty blower motor resistor. Get the blower motor inspected. If it's faulty it has to be replaced.

Remove heater control switch

Before removing the heater switch on this 2006 citroen hdi I would first have the blower motor checked and the most common reason for this and other blower problems would be the blower resistor.

Your blower works on and off at times, first locate the blower motor and the resistor. the blower motor is located on the heater box, look under the pass/side of the dash, you may have to remove under dash cover to see blower.
When you have located the blower now look to the side on the heater box, there you will see a connector plug, it plugs into a connection on the heater box, this will be the resistor, the resistor slides into heater box and the end of it bolts to box to hold it in place and then the connector plugs into it, if you can not locate it then follow wires that plug into blower , follow wires back they will lead you to resistor,
next time blower does not work wiggle connector to resistor and see if blower turns on, if it does then resistor is the problem. also unplug resistor plug at resistor and check for any burning of connectors at plug and inside resistor.

I would bet its a bad resistor or the plug is brunt due to high draw from bad connections, if plug has burn damage to connectors then replace the plug along with resistor.

I need to locate my blower motor resistor on my 1999 S-10. do u know where it is located on my s-10?

The resistor is located under the hood on the passenger side. At the back of the engine compartment you need to locate the airbox it can be identified by a circular piece that's right beside the fender on the firewall (this is your blower motor) to the right if it (looking from the front of the truck) about 4 -6" you will see a wire plug. Unplug this connector and locate the four screws that attach it to the air box. Remove these screws and pull the resistor from the housing.

Hope helps (remember to rate this answer).

I have a 1998 ford f 150 and the blower motor only works on high

This problem is caused by a defective blower motor speed control resistor.

BLOWER MOTOR LOCATION
The blower motor resistor is located under the glove box. You can locate it by finding a 4 wire connector, directly below the glove box hinge (towards the front of the truck). There are 2 screws holding it in. A mirror is helpful in replacing this, but I managed to replace it without one. You will need a nut driver to remove the screws. My suggestion is to leave the wires connected to the resistor while removing the screws.

Heater blower motor only runs on the highest setting. I have replaced the blower motor itself. What could be the problem?

if you are getting only one speed from the blower motor then it would be the (blower motor resistor) causeing the problem. the blower motor resistor is located under the dash on the passenger side next to the blower motor. unplug connector and remove two screws from housing. to test the resistor connect a continuity tester to the resistor. check between the input to the output sides of the resistor for continuity. if not replace the resistor.
