Question: My heater fan used to work on the 4 setting and now doesn't work at all. Any advice?
Question
My heating/AC fan was working on the 4 setting and now doesnt work at all. I checked the 35 fuse under the hood and that was good. I also checked the HVAC fuses under the back seat as well. All good. I am wondering what the issue may be and the cost of repair. And if its the resistor behind the glove compartment, where exactly is that located. Thanks

JourneymanIf you get no blower at any speed, check for voltage at the large lead going to the blower motor. I believe it would be purple on this vehicle. If you have voltage here, Check the ground wire. If both are good, the blower motor is bad.

So you will probably have to replace both items.
