Auto Blower Motors
A blower motor is a crucial part of your car's heating and cooling system. This small fan circulates air over the heater core, providing the cabin of your vehicle with air conditioning, heating and defrost capabilities. Pulling air from outside the vehicle, the blower motor heats air in its core, then sends it through a filter and into your vehicle's cabin. Low air pressure when you activate your air conditioning may signal the need to replace the blower motor. Additionally, a rumbling sound will signal that the motor is cracked. However, it's a good idea to test the fuses and wiring before you replace the motor altogether. Replacing the Blower Motor ResistorIn most new cars, the blower motor is located behind the dashboard. You may only need to change the resistor, the device that regulates the speed of the motor, if the blower is acting up. You can replace the resistor by popping open the clips underneath the dash on the passenger side and removing the device from the wiring. Then, insert a new resistor in its place, making sure to get the right one for your make and model. Be sure the fans are turned off and the keys are out of the ignition before you begin.
