Troubleshooting

Blower fan not working at all

Check the fuse for the blower motor. Ensure the new resistor is correctly seated and the 4-pin connector is fully plugged in. Verify battery voltage.

Blower fan only works on the highest setting

This is a classic symptom of a faulty blower motor resistor. Ensure the replacement unit is correctly installed and compatible with your vehicle.

Intermittent fan speed issues

Check the wiring harness connected to the resistor for any loose connections or damage. Ensure the resistor is properly secured and not vibrating loose.

Resistor appears physically damaged

Do not install a damaged part. Contact the supplier for a replacement. Inspect the installation area for any foreign objects that may have caused damage.
