Do you have power to the blower motor?

With everything connected there should be power on both wires going to the blower motor. If there is no power than remove the blower motor relay in the fuse block under the hood. There should be power at two of the pins and two of the pins should be grounded. One pin is powered by the 50 amp Blower fuse and the other gets its power from the function selector (the switch that controls where the air comes out.

If only one pin has power than pull the 50amp blower fuse If power goes away than you know that the relay is not recieving power from the function selector. That is powered by a 15 amp fuse in the cetral fuse block (under the dash i think). If that fuse is good than check for power at the pink with black wire at the function switch. If there is power there tan check for power at the yellow with red wire and the function switch. If there is no power than you have a bad function switch.

This is a ground side controlled blower motor. The speed switch controls the path to ground. so if there is power to the blower motor on the orange with red wire you can ground the orange with black wire at the blower motor and it should run.

That should be enough info to get you started. Let me know what you find and I'll be happy to help further.

Fan not working

If you have replaced the blower motor and the blower resistor, you must have a failed blower switch. Also look for indications of overheated connectors/terminals. Blower motors draw high amperage when operation on high speed, many times melting the plastic connectors housing the spade terminals carrying the heavy current load.

2005 chevy1500 Z71 fan motor stuck on all the time

We are talking about the Radiator fan? If so, the Relay to the fan is stuck and the points are not releasing. First, go to Autozone.com and register your vehicle for free. You will then be able to get free diagrams and layouts of your fusebox.
The Horn relay is often the same as the Electric radiator fan relay and can be switched. Check the part numbers on the casing. Switch the relays and the fan should work properly.

Terracan blowers wont turn off

Ok i could be 1 of 3 things blower relay,blower switch or blower motor resistor.First thing to do is check the blower motor resistor by pulling on and wiggling the pigtail to the resistor with the ignition and fan switches on.Then if there is no bad connection i would replace the relay and if no change afterwards replace the fan switch.

I have a 1998 olds 88 And. The blower motor motor isn't working where is the relay for the blower motor exactly

I think under the hood in a fuse box.I would check the blower motor resistors connection afterwards.Turn ignition and fan switches on then wiggle the pigtail going to the resistor.Its located in the heat duct on the passenger side near the floor.These resistors are known for getting hot and melting the pigtail causing it to loose connection.

Heat fan stopped working..is it a fuse?

Hi!!
It could be the Blower Motor Fuse or Relay and they should be located in the cabin Fuse Box, if both are OK, it could be the blower motor resistor, located on the blower motor housing, it is the part where the electrical connector goes into and it's got a pigtail connector that goes to the blower motor, it is attached to the blower housing by three screws. Here are some pictures for better identification.
FRONT VIEW 1kbron_5.jpg
CONNECTOR FROM RESISTOR TO BLOWER MOTOR 1kbron_6.jpg
SIDE VIEW 1kbron_7.jpg

To test it, make sure the electrical connector has voltage when the FAN is on, if voltage is present, it means relay and fuse are OK, plug the connector into the resistor and check voltage on the pigtail connector, if voltage is present, the resistor is OK, voltage varies according to the speed selected. To check the blower motor, apply 12 volts and ground the the motor terminals, it should kick in in Hi speed, if not Replace Blower Motor.
A HELPFUL - 4 THUMBS - rating for this solution would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for using FixYa.

1998 olds delta 88 lost fan control, ac control, and rear window control all at once have power to fuses and tried differnt switch assembly in dash

It might not be a fuse that goes to that it might be a relay thats under your hood in the fuse box. Just a idea for you to try. Hope this works out for you.

A/c only works when it wants to? only on high, think it might be the blower motor relay?

test light your pigtail if you have voltage replace motor

Blower for heater stopped

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)
