The resistor is commonly used in our daily life. There are all kinds of resistors in a vehicle. As we know, air conditioning is very important for a car. One of the most essential components is the blower motor resistor. This article embodies basic knowledge about blower motor resistors and you can get skills to replace your motor fan by yourself.

Step1:Avoid future HVAC system problems
While you're under the hood working around the HVAC housing, here are some related tasks you should complete for preventative maintenance or to avoid future HVAC system problems.
Take out and clean the blower motor fan.
Replace the cabin air filter.

Step2:Locate the Blower Motor Resistor
Obviously, the first thing you had better do is locate the blower motor resistor so that you determine which component will be taken out. It is directly next to the blower motor. The latter, on the other hand, is commonly found underneath the passenger side dash or in the engine compartment.

Step3:Take out the Blower Motor Resistor
Take out the Blower Motor Resistor
Remove the blower motor resistor now that you know where it is. To begin, remove the components surrounding the blower motor resistor, including the pigtail connected to the AC and the blower motor cooling duct. You can now easily access the blower motor resistor at this point.

Step4:Install the New Blower Resistor
After removing the blower motor resistor, cut the wires that connect to the component. Cut the wires with a stripper or scissors designed for cutting through wires.
Replace the blower motor resistor in the same location where it was previously removed.
