Blower for heater stopped

The blower motor was working on different settings (high/low) if you played with the switch. When you played with switch trying to get it to come on you could hear clicking under the glove box. The heat was on high and then it stopped working all together. The clicking sounds like a relay type click. It did it several times before but it would always come back on when you played with the settings (1 thru 5) Any ideas?

Remove the hush panel under the dash and unplug your blower motor turn the knob and see if its getting power. If it is replace the blower motor. If your heater seems to work on high but not the other 4 settings. replace the blower motor resistor and pigtail (same general location as blower motor)

2000 Chevrolet Impala blower motor work from 1-4 but not on 5th speed why?

The blower motor relay is energized when the Blower Motor Control is set to the High position. This removes the blower motor resistors from the circuit and battery voltage is then applied directly from the HVAC BLO fuse (RH IP Accessory Wiring Junction Block) to the blower motor though the relay switch contacts. The blower motor then runs at high speed.

HVAC Blower Controls Circuit Description
The blower motor is a variable speed motor. The motor operates at a higher rate when voltage is increased to the maximum level.
The blower motor resistors reduce the voltage supplied from the A/C FAN fuse (LH IP Accessory Wiring Junction Block) when the blower control is set at low and medium speeds (speeds 1-4). The blower motor relay is energized when the Blower Motor Control is set to the High position. This removes the blower motor resistors from the circuit and battery voltage is then applied directly from the HVAC BLO fuse (RH IP Accessory Wiring Junction Block) to the blower motor though the relay switch contacts. The blower motor then runs at high speed.

My heater fan doesn't work at all.

The blower motor resistor is bad ! The blower motor operates at different speeds an when you turn the speed switch It directs current through a different resistor making the blower motor go slower of faster . What Does Blower Motor Resistor Do eHow

Heater blower only works on high

Most likely the blower motor resistor or the fise for the low speeds. The high setting for the blower motor is on a separate circuit than the other lower settings.

Heater and ac stopped working 1996 gmc sonoma there is a clicking noise when i turn the fan low to high and also the same sound turning switch from off to different blower settings but no air comes out...

probly the switch is burnt-it happens when the blower motor gits old and draws too many amps---so replace blower at same time or else same issue again--and while u gut dashboard all apart inspect ac evaporator and heater core-theyr aging too

Blower motor only works on high

your switch is bad more than likely but different settings send power threw the motor different ways so if one way shorts out another sometimes still works also if you have had a different blower motor put in some only have one speed if you just buy the cheapest one

I have high speed blower but no medium or low

It's likely a relay. I've often seen where the lower settings are ran through one relay and the higher setting ran through another because of the difference in amperage. I'd start there, the relays are often pretty cheap and a lot easier to replace than tearing the dash apart to change the switch.

Heater blower only blows on low

This could be a few different things:

1.Check the power and ground connections on your blower motor, corrosion can cause high resistance and a slow blower speed.

2. Check your available voltage at the blower motor on the different settings. it should vary with high supplying 12volts, make sure to do this check with the blower motor still plugged in.

3. Connect the blower to a 12v power source and see if it runs at high speed.

If all else fails i would check your resistor pack, i would not suspect this because when it fails you usually just loose all speeds except for high, but it could happen.

Replacing heater blower motor

this is not a problem with thw switch or motor. There is a resistor that is mounted inside the dash on the pasenger side that controls the speed of the blwer..these have a tendency to burn up after 10 years or so... replace the resistor, and you will be fine!  http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Toyota-Truck-A-C-Heater-Fan-Resistor_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33548QQihZ016QQitemZ260344846266QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW#ht_500wt_1230
