Default Blower Motor

My blower motor doesn't work. I hook up manifold gauges to do a performance test on the a/c. The high speed for the blower stopped working. I drove it outside and the blower stopped working all together. Its not the blower. I tested that, its fine.

Any ideas on what it could be?
Thanks,
Tyler

Welcome to DF tamcnally! I am gonna guess its your blower resistors. Its not an uncommon problem. Ill move this thread over to the 2nd Gen Dak Section for further input. Good Luck!

its the blower motor resistor. Theres a little plug that goes into the thing and its located on the passenger side under the glovebox. Its a real pain the the a ss to get to. I just let the dealer do because it was only like 60$ and i didnt feel like laying upside down in the passenger seat to do it. Its a common thing on these trucks.

yup sounds like the resistor is bad in yours 20 dollars at the dealer for a new one and 10 min to change it out yourself, not hard at all as long as you have a torx head screwdriver and 2 hands

as said it is above the passenger footwell under the glove box but not all that bad to change
