Heater Blower
Got into my truck after it was running for 15 min and it felt a little cold. Went to turn up the blower control and notice it only works on High. WTH???
Options? How can I trouble shoot this? Could it have thrown a code? I have tried cycling the ignition key but no luck, maybe I will try O'Rileys?
Any ideas would be helpful, it's a little cool in WI.
Thanks
After doing a little research on the forum, I see it maybe caused by the resistor. Where is that located? Passenger side? Go from the bottom of the dash?
It makes sense.

mine actually just did this, i had a cluster of wires under my glovebox that the insulation had worn away and was shorting out so i taped them up and it works fine, mine would blow on high only and even then would only be partially warm, its like 6 wires above the floorboard under the glovebox
Yeah, the blower motor resistor. I just replaced mine, roughly $50 at local auto parts store. Cheaper online, but I'm an instant gratification type of guy.
Held in by 2 phillips head screws, is the thing w/ the plug going into it under the dash below the glove box.

Udpate. it was the resistor. Removed it and noticed a little brass piece was broken. I resoldered it and going to try reinstalling it today. Hopefully it works and then it will save me 50bucks.
