Blower Motor Resistor: Description and Operation
Description - Rear
DESCRIPTION
A blower motor resistor is used on this model when equipped with the manual temperature control (MTC) rear heating-A/C system. Models equipped
with the automatic temperature control (ATC) rear heating-A/C system use a blower motor power module, instead of the blower motor resistor See:
Control Module HVAC/Description and Operation/Rear Blower Motor Power Module - Description.
The rear blower motor resistor is mounted to the inboard side of the rear heating-A/C housing, located on the right side of the vehicle. The rear blower
motor resistor consists of a molded plastic mounting plate (1) with an integral wire connector receptacle (2). Concealed behind the mounting plate are
resistors (3) located between a two-piece stamped steel heat sink (4).
The rear blower motor resistor can be accessed for service without removing the rear heater-A/C housing.
