I have a 2000 Chevy Prizm and the air conditioning fan only works in the highest position. My guess is that one of the relays is bad. If that's correct, which relay is bad?

Sounds like a bad blower motor resistor. Since high speed bypasses the resistor and the lower speeds use the resistor and don't work, the resistor is the most logical answer. It is usually mounted near the blower motor under the passenger side of the dash.

SUZUKI SX 2009 FAN FOR AIR CONDITION IS NOT WORKING

times 2, what fan................/?????? point to it or name it... (exact location)
answering for front grill, condenser fan.
cab fan is called blower.
are you a tech>? do you want just wild blind guessing?
no , own a $10 volt meter, well that is easy to use. (1hr, training)

if there is 12vdc to the fan up in grill. then the fan is bad.
if 0v the relay is either bad or being told not to energize.
if the relay coil is 0v (across it)
then the relay is commanded off for due cause.
more tests.. ask.

there are 8 reasons for the (BRAINS box) to cut fan. up to 8.
if the brain box goes to cut A.C
it cuts the compressor and fan.
we can find this easy with that same meter.
in a jiffy.
but most here , just want blind guessing
so here , ill feed the flames.
the fan relay is bad.
ask me tomorrow
and the fan is bad....

Where is engine fan fuse on 1991 geo prizm?

toyota corolla. it is.
but that depend on what engine option
the cooling systems totally vary by engine.
also with or with out air conditioning......???? it too can turn on this fan!
look it up on alldata.com
buy the FSM book

post engine, size. better the real engine name off the hood sticker
works BEST.
the 7a was offered in 1992 first. my guess is the fuse is a guess. right? of the 4 possible.?
bad FAN (hot wire it to test it) bad wires, bad 194F switch.
a FAN relay, a fan on the black red wire. relay to fan.
or a stuck open 194F engine coolant temp switch, a voltmeter finds this in 5min work. but depends on if A/C or not.


fuse, there is 30amp fuse link, marked fan

I have a 2002 Pontiac Sunfire. My fan stopped producing air (hot and cold altogether) - from the lowest setting to highest setting does not work.

HI,
sounds like a the heater/ blower fan relay went bad. Unless you're mechanically-inclined you'll need a mechanic to install the replacement.

Do a Google search for the relay or blower motor and/or search for a Chevy Cavalier (same car) forum to find a fix - if you want to tackle it yourself.
