Hi all
yep I know, just when we thought the spending was over Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

The fan / blower switch for the heating / AC dash fans has decided to only give one speed, fast.... It looks like it is a Chysler part and should be 4 speed. Can anyone suggest a good supplier for this part please?

Hopefully

Keith

Hi Keith

I strongly suspect the resistors are blown and if so you may be able to get replacement...but they are very low ohmmage if they are similar to ones in the Sebring: 0.31,0.87, and 1.83 so you might need to go to an electronics supply store with a wider selection. I don't have the wattage specs. You can find the resistors just to the left of the blower motor. Please let me know if you successfully replace them; the alternative is to buy a new resistor block from the dealer.

ps extract from http://experts.about.com/q/Chrysler-Repair-807/blower-switch-1998-Chys ler.htm hope it helps

Hi Stewart
I am so impressed mate, and I thought you were just a photographer Embarassed Embarassed Embarassed
Sorry in the late reply, I have only just noticed this thread again whilst checking for something else (thats the problem with such a fast moving site I guess.....)

I am going out to check the said resistors and will get back to you. Thanks again for kicking my cell into gear....

Hi
check my write-up on a Chevy P30 dash fan control-As said I experienced the same and the problem was the Bosch relay connected to the resistor device.
All the best
John

Just come accross this old post.... my resistor had blown in my ducato heater due to getting clogged up with leaves... although it isnt a resister, more like a thermal fuse. A local autoelectrican repaired it for a fiver.
