Need some help. Blower motor cuts off with acceleration.
Just got a 99 dodge ram 1500 5.2L. When I am idling the blower motor works great on every setting. However, when I am driving down the road and I accelerate the blower motor cuts off until I let off of the gas, and then blows until the next acceleration. Never had this issue before. This is my first dodge and I wondered if anyone else has had this issue. Thanks.
I haven't checked to feel but I believe it's just cutting off. When it's on the highest setting I can hear it blowing pretty well but when it happens I hear absolutely nothing from the blower.
Are you sure it's not just switching to the defroster vents? That's a more common problem.
I stand corrected. Yes, it seems to switch over simply to defroster vents and weakens in force. What might be the cause of this problem? Vaccuum perhaps?

Yes vacuum. Either a bad hose (unlikely) or a bad check valve (99.99% of the time). NAPA sells the right ones but I don't know the part#
