Re: 1996 Dodge Grand Caravan LE AC/Heater Blower, Relay and Resistor Block Problems 1
Ahhhhh! Life's classic issues, and their solutions, are truly a thing of beauty to behold. My highest praise goes to you, Headlesshorseman, for your efforts in bringing a solution to so many of us. And certainly thanks to the other contributors. With all the models and versions, it would be very expensive for one person to learn all there is to know about this topic. You gotta love the Internet.
I just bought my second used Dodge Grand Caravan, a 2000 LE with 118,000 miles. I have been on hiatus from the DGC world since 2005 when my wife suddenly tired of our 96 in favor of a Mazda Tribute (if anyone has questions about that trade, I have some comments). My Honda finally got totaled after two previous attempts to wreck it, so I picked up the 2000 DGC near Ft Worth last weekend. I had forgotten about the fan motor problem until all the way to today (one week and just over 1,000 more miles). Well, I was expecting a car with issues, so...no problem.
I already went through this on the 96. Back then it was my wife's car and it had to be fixed immediately, so I spent the $400 to replace everything all at once. Since they replaced everything, I can't know for sure what was wrong. But now it is my car and I can do it myself (thanks to this classic post). I'll probably change the resistor block next weekend and go from there.
