blower motor problem

[goser]

I know this is an old post but my wife just came to me with the same problem 98GP_SE had--no blower on 1-4, awfully noisy and shakes the car on setting five, and a puddle deep enough to float a coffee cup on the passenger side. I see from the other posts I'll have to replace the harness/resistor, but before I get in there am wondering what I can expect from the shuddering leaking blower problem.

Thanks!

Water intrusion is common from the cowl seal under the passenger side wiper arm. Installing a cabinair filter helps improve this seal. there's a good chance there is water in the heater box, and it may have taken out the resistor. The vibration is coming from the blower motor itself, the water may have taken out the bushings causing it to wobble, hence the vibration.

The problem sounds like the blower motor resistor to me. I had the same problem where it would only blow out on 5 or random other settings then I replaced the blower motor resistor and it works great. Now the AC isn't working though.
