Mustang V8-4.6L DOHC VIN R (2003)
Blower Motor Resistor: Description and Operation
The heater blower motor switch resistor has the following features:
-
The assembly is located on the passenger side of the plenum assembly behind the glove compartment.
-
Three resistance elements are mounted on the resistor board to provide four A/C blower motor speeds.
-
Depending on the heater blower motor switch position, series resistance is added or bypassed in the A/C blower motor circuit to decrease or
increase A/C blower motor speed.
-
An overheating protective device (thermal limiter) will open the resistor coil circuit when the temperature reaches 105° - 110°C (221° - 230°F),
interrupting the blower motor operation in all speeds except HI.
-
The thermal limiter cannot be reset and is not serviceable.
