kirks5oh Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 guys, i just noticed the heating/defrost/cooling motor on my daily beater ('99 sentra) only works on the highest setting. the lower 3 settings do not work. i tried replacing the 2 fuses in the fuse panel for the blower motor to no avail. i coud understand if the motor did not work at all, but am a bit confused as it appears to be working, just only on 'full blast' mode. any thoughts?? thanks kirk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirks5oh Posted August 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 does that mean replacing the whole blower motor?? how hard is it to fix?? thanks hal. i got pictures of your old exhaust on my car that i will post this weekend--sounds/looks incredible. i'm getting ready to install a killer chiller on the car to try to get my intake temps down a bit with all this heat. its so damn hot here, that its almost impossible to do car work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1647545494 Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 does that mean replacing the whole blower motor?? how hard is it to fix?? its just a little resistor pack usually bolts to the blower case under the dash and has a plug on it you can buy the resistor at the dealer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirks5oh Posted August 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 i'm assuming this is the resistor in question?? http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/9595/s3500017dp7.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirks5oh Posted August 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 $22 for the resistor, and i'm back in the game. just got the A/C refilled on the car, and changed out a faulty oxygen sensor. i'm getting 33mpg on average with some city driving and mostly freeway driving. i'd probably get 35+ if it were all freeway--that's nuts for a 10 year old car thanks for the help guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
