Default Blower Motor/Resistor 00 Strat



Replace blower resistor twice. Getting ready to replace again. Just went out. There is obviously a problem other than that. Dealership said new blower motor. Does this make any sense? Works on HIGH speed but none others. Please help.</P>

If its the same place as mine the its not in the glove box. Underneath the glove box is a black plastic cover. Take that off (usually comes off with a couple of fastners) It should be to the left of the blower itself. Wiring harness is plugged into it. Mine came off with just the two screws on the side of the resistor. Its about 3 inches long. Hope this helps.</P>

thanks for the quick reply. there is a panel about 6 inches wide just below the glove box. does this just pry off. i'm a little nervous about breaking something. also, it kind of appears to be all one piece with the rap around center console. any hints you could give would be greatly appreciated.</P>


thanks again</P>

Hello,</P>


New to the forum... I have a 98 Stratus and it does the same thing. If you find out what's causing the resistor to blow out, let us know.</P>


Thanks...</P>

I was told the blower motor itself is pulling too much current. Anyone else have an opinion?</P>

My 99 Breeze has the same problem as well shouldn't this be a recall?

You can have someone check the amp draw to see if it's within spec.

I just bought a 96 cirrus as a winter beater. Has 182,000km on it. Blower was gone when I bought it - had dealer repair, went again just over 30 days after I bought it (they won't cover repair). Dealership is telling me $200+ to fix, would like to do myself. Anyone know if the above directions also apply to a '96?

Thanks![&:]
