Blower Motor Resistor: Description and Operation
The blower motor resistor is mounted to the lower right side of the heater-A/C housing in the passenger compartment, where it can be accessed for
service.
The blower motor resistor has multiple resistor wires, each of which will change the resistance in the blower motor ground path to change the blower
motor speed. The blower motor switch directs the ground path through the correct resistor wire to obtain the selected blower motor speed. The blower
motor resistor cannot be repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
With the blower motor switch in the lowest speed position the ground path for the motor is applied through all of the resistor wires. Each higher speed
selected with the blower motor switch applies the blower motor ground path through fewer of the resistor wires, increasing the blower motor speed.
When the switch is in the highest speed position, blower motor resistor is bypassed and the blower motor receives a direct path to ground.
